Mark Twain plays the American tourist who feels that he understands everything while his reactions say that he doesn't. His description of an Edelweiss is most telling - In the high regions we found rich store of the splendid red flower called the Alpine rose, but we did not find any examples of the ugly Swiss favorite called Edelweiss. Its name seems to indicate that it is a noble flower and that it is white. It may be noble enough, but it is not attractive, and it is not white.

And it earned for its author his first recognition as a serious writer.

Tom Sawyer, a young scamp of a hundred years ago, used to play truant and find his fun along the shores of the Mississippi. He shared it with Huckleberry Finn, who, as son of the village drunkard, was very much of an outcast. Huck was drawn from a real boy, Tom, from three others known to the author. So well did Mark Twain remember those boyhood scenes and what it felt like to be such a boy, that the story still makes its appeal even today to young and old, living in a world so utterly different from anything Mark Twain knew or even dreamed of.
