The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

By: Mark Twain

Narrated by: Dick Hill

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is one of the first great American novels. The book is noted for its innocent young protagonist (Huck Finn), its colorful description of people and places along the Mississippi River, and its sober and often scathing look at the entrenched attitudes, particularly racism, of the time. The drifting journey of Huck and his friend Jim, a runaway slave, down the Mississippi River on their raft may be one of the most enduring images of escape and freedom in all of American literature.(P)2007 Alpha DVD LLC

Critic reviews

"All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn." (Ernest Hemingway)

Delightful Performace

This rendition by Dick Hill is fabulous! All the voices are pitch perfect. Very enjoyable.

Classic superbly read

Mark Twain is a favorite. To have Duck Hill read is an absolute delight. Unabridged without changing language to remove historical unpleasantness. So, prepare for that. Otherwise, a classic time machine to our past in the inimitable, beautifully written wit of Mark Twain. Dick Hill makes each and every character come alive. Wow!

Too bad

The narrator's voice and reading style was so grating, we couldn't get through the first chapter.

Well read Huckleberry Fin

My kids really enjoyed this reading
