More about the book

Set in Tudor England, the narrative follows young Prince Edward and pauper Tom Canty, who switch places after discovering their striking resemblance. As they navigate each other's worlds, Edward experiences the harsh realities faced by commoners, while Tom enjoys the privileges of royalty. This comedic tale serves as a social commentary on the superficial judgments based on appearances. Twain's intention was to highlight the severity of the laws of the time by placing the King in the shoes of the common man. The edition features illustrations by Franklin Booth.
