A first edition, first impression. 

This work had a very small print run. In the publisher's original cloth binding.  

‘Tom Sawyer Abroad’ is Twain’s noted parody adventure tale, a pastiche of Jules Verne’s popular tales. 

It features Twain’s notable characters Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn as they travel to Africa in a futuristic hot air balloon. Told from the perspective of Huck Finn, this work is regarded as the sequel to the Tom Sawyer series. 

A very bright copy of this novel internally.
