A great American novelist, illustrated by a great American artist now available in a collectable twovolume set. In 1936, the Heritage Press, a publisher of fine editions, commissioned Norman Rockwell to illustrate Mark Twains Adventures of Tom Sawyer four years later, they asked him to illustrate The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn as well. For each book, Rockwell created eight fullcolour paintings and numerous penandink drawings, the product of extensive ontheground research in Twains hometown of Hannibal, Missouri. Famously, Rockwell even tried to buy some Hannibal residents old clothes, to dress his models in. For years, the Rockwell editions of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn have been unavailable in stores. Now, Abbeville Press is proud to reissue them as a handsome new clothbound set. The colour plates are reproduced from new photography of Rockwells original paintings, the typesetting has been done anew to a high standard, and new introductions illustrated with Rockwells rarely seen preliminary sketches examine this unique encounter between two legendary chroniclers of America. Also available Treasure Island and Kidnapped boxed set ISBN 9780789214089
