Look for other Mark Twain books in our 100th Anniversary Collection . A Connecticut engineer named Hank Morgan gets knocked on the head and is transported back in time to medieval England during King Arthur's reign. He is initially captured but uses his Yankee ingenuity to eventually become the boss of the realm. The book recounts his adventures and use of his 'modern' technology against the royalty, knights, and church of the day. He continually makes fun of the backwards nature of the citizens and rulers, and contrasts it to his democratic roots and ideals. If you only know the various comic-book and film adaptations of Mark Twain’s “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court,” you’re liable to imagine the book as a laugh riot, an exercise in anachronistic fun. Knights on bicycles! Knights in armor playing baseball! A newspaper named “The Camelot Weekly Hosannah and Literary Volcano”! In fact, Twain’s 1889 novel — now available in a handsome anniversary edition — is seldom what we’d call funny. Instead, it’s more the literary equivalent of the Fourth of July — a farrago of politics, preaching and fireworks.
