Personal Review: Mark Twain : Historical Romances : The
Prince and the Pauper / A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthurs

Court / Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc (Library of
America) by Samuel Clemens
This collection contains my 2 childhood and all-time Twain favorites -
Prince & Pauper, and Connecticut Yankee - and added the magical
ingredient of a historical romance I never knew Twain had written - Joan of
Arc. Now that I have read this as well, I see that it may be even better
than the other two! The wry sense of humor characteristic of Twain
definitely is most in evidence in CT Yankee. All 3 of these works deliver
Twain's wide understanding of human nature in different times and
sociological conditions, and his admiration of human nobility and greatness
of heart in adversity. Joan of Arc unquestionably is the most inspiring of
these tales, being the story of the greatest hero (or heroine). The Prince
and the Pauper, however, remains a jewel of an adventure story, which
any child can identify with, and learn from.It is a collection to keep
forever, and re-read frequently.
