An ingenious Yankee mechanic, knocked unconscious in a fight, awakens to find himself at

Camelot in A.D. 528. Imprisoned by Sir Kay the Seneschal and exhibited before the knights of the Round

Table, he is condemned to death but saves himself by posing as a magician like Merlin, correctly predicting

an eclipse, and becoming minister to King Arthur. He increases his power by applying nineteenth-century

knowledge of gunpowder, electricity, and industrial methods. However, when he attempts to better the

condition of the peasantry he meets opposition from the church, the knights, Merlin, and the sorceress

Morgan le Fay.

Mark Twain's classic tale recounts the adventures of the ever resourceful Tom Sawyer and his friend Huckleberry Finn in the little town of St Petersburg, Missouri, on the banks of the Mississippi.

A story of robbers, graveyards at midnight, buried treasure, and a deep and mysterious cave, 'Tom Sawyer' has lost none of its power to enthral and delight since it was first published in 1876.
