The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (also known as Huck Finn) is a novel written by Mark Twain, an American humorist. It is widely considered to be one of the first Great American Novels. It is also one of the first major American novels written in the first person by the eponymous Huckleberry "Huck" Finn, Tom Sawyer's best friend and the hero of three other Mark Twain books.The detailed depiction of people and locations along the Mississippi River is a highlight of the novel. The book is an often critical look at ingrained attitudes, especially racism, by satirising Southern antebellum culture, which was already a quarter-century in the past at the time of publication. Huck's raft trip down the Mississippi River with his friend Jim, a fugitive slave, may be one of the most lasting depictions of escape and liberation in all of American literature.
