About this audiobook
A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court by M. Twain. Worldwide literature classic, among top 100 literary novels of all time.
Transported 1300 years into the past, Connecticut engineer Hank Morgan finds himself in Camelot, the legendary home of King Arthur and his fabled Knights of the Round Table. Becoming a friend and adviser to the King, Hank encounters Merlin, Lancelot, Guinevere and all the characters from Arthurian legend... and comes into conflict with many of them.
Mark Twain's classic novel is an adventure, a satire and a study in democracy. The novel has been filmed many times and retains its ability to captivate new readers.
An Author's Republic audio production.

Mark Twain
Mark Twain, who was born Samuel L. Clemens in Missouri in 1835, wrote some of the most enduring works of literature in the English language, including The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc was his last completed book—and, by his own estimate, his best. Its acquisition by Harper & Brothers allowed Twain to stave off bankruptcy. He died in 1910.
