康州美國佬奇遇記

“An exciting new edition of a Twain text that raises important questions about modernity, technology, and progress. I especially welcome the inclusion of all of Dan Beard’s original illustrations.”
―BEVERLY LYON CLARK, Wheaton College


“Artfully designed to make Mark Twain’s ‘most conceptually ambitious and most wildly problematic novel’ accessible to today’s reader.”
―THOMAS COOLEY, The Ohio State University

This Norton Critical Edition includes:

• The first American edition (1889) of the novel, approved by Twain and published by his own company.
• All 220 original illustrations, bringing to life Twain’s admiration for King Arthur, Merlin, and Camelot as well as his deep interest in time travel, technology, and political satire.
• Five contemporary critical assessments from American and
• British sources along with seven recent essays on the novel’s major themes.
• A Compositional Chronology and Selected Bibliography.
