Huck Finn Tom Sawyer Among the Indians Author:Mark Twain, Lee Nelson Sequel to The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn begun by Mark Twain in 1885, finished by Lee Nelson In 1885 while The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was becoming one of the best-selling American classics of modern times, Mark Twain began this sequel in which Huck Finn, Tom Sawyer, and Jim head west on the trail of two white girls kidnapped by Siou... more »x warriors, learning the hard way that "book Injuns and real Injuns aint the same." Fifteen thousand words into the work, Twain stopped in the middle of a sentence, never to go back. The unfinished story sat on dusty shelves for more than a hundred years until the University of California cut a deal with Utah author Lee Nelson to finish it. The story, Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer Among the Indians, is the first new book with Mark Twains name on it in nearly a hundred years, with readers saying they cant tell where Twain stops and Nelson begins. It is a story of adventure, wit, and wisdom with Tom and Huck seeking true love while tramping through hostile Indian country, befriending Bill Hickman and Porter Rockwell, stealing from the United States Army, then facing a gunfight and hangmans noose in Sacramento, California. Said Lee Nelson: "I have no idea how Twain intended to finish the story, and I reason that he didnt know either or he would have done it. I just hope that wherever he is, he enjoys my conclusion as much as I enjoyed his beginning."« less
