W. J. Hoggett Book order (chronological)

Now, in this extraordinary literary discovery, the original first half of Mark Twain's American masterpiece is available for the first time to a general readership. Lost for more than a century, the passages reinstated in this edition reveal a novel even more controversial than the version Mark Twain published in 1885 and provide an invaluable insight into his creative process. A breakthrough of unparalleled impact, this comprehensive edition of an American classic is the final rebuttal in the tireless debate of "what Mark Twain really meant." (back cover)
