Book Description
After being cracked on the head at a factory in Connecticut, Hank awakens to find himself in sixth-century England. Captured and sentenced to death by King Arthur, the Yankee instead becomes the king's right-hand wizard. Using his streetwise ways and nineteenth-century "magic" Hank goes about righting all the wrongs he encounters.

10/4/2007 Cindy Lovell said: Brilliance! A favorite of mine, and a favorite of gifted students. When you read it, you might think you're watching the Daily Show or the Colbert Report. Twain wrote this one "with a pen warmed up in hell." There are great lesson plans on the Mark Twain Museum website to go with this book.
