The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer’s Comrade: With 195 Illustrations and a Free Audio Link


The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a novel by Mark Twain, first published in the United Kingdom in December 1884 and in the United States in February 1885. It is commonly named among the Great American Novels of all time and is often considered Twain’s greatest masterpiece. Combining his raw humor and startlingly mature material, Twain developed a novel that directly attacked many of the traditions the South held dear at the time of its publication.

Huckleberry Finn is the main character, and through his eyes, the reader sees and judges the South, its faults, and its redeeming qualities. Huck’s companion Jim, a runaway slave, provides friendship and protection while the two journey along the Mississippi on their raft.

The work is among the first in major American literature to be written throughout in vernacular English, characterized by local color regionalism and its colorful description of people and places along the Mississippi River. Set in a Southern antebellum society. It is told in the first person by Huckleberry “Huck” Finn, a friend of Tom Sawyer.

Popular with readers, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has also been the continued object of study by literary critics since its publication. It was criticized upon release because of its coarse language and became even more controversial in the 20th century because of its perceived use of racial stereotypes and because of its frequent use of the racial slur “nigger,” despite strong arguments that the protagonist and the tenor of the book are anti-racist.

“All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn. It’s the best book we’ve had.” – Ernest Hemingway.

This book is unabridged (unedited) and the story appears as it was first published in 1884.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer: With 181 Illustrations and a Free Audio File.


Drenched with Mark Twain’s iconic wit and wisdom, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is the author’s work that comes closest to his boyhood experiences of growing up in Hannibal in the 1840s. It chronicles young Tom and his best friend Huckleberry Finn on a life-changing journey of mischief, intrigue, and excitement.

Mischievous and full of energy, Tom enjoys childish pranks and pastimes with his friends, Huck Finn, the town outcast and Joe Harper, his best friend. However, at the town graveyard, Huck and Tom witness a murder, carried out by local vagabond Injun Joe. They vow never to tell a soul about what they have seen and so begins their journey into adulthood as Tom wrestles with his own morality, guilt, and anxiety.

A ‘coming of age’ tale, it is through Tom’s adventures and relationships with others that he becomes more responsible and more aware of his own inner conflict. Through the central characters of Tom and Huck, Twain satirizes the moral rigidity of society and adult hypocrisy, whilst at the same time giving a nostalgic portrayal of a young boy’s journey into adulthood.

This book is unabridged and the story appears as it was first published in 1876.

Treasure Island: With 90 Illustrations and a free Audio File.


“Fifteen men on the dead man’s chest-Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!”

A voyage for buried treasure spells trouble for young cabin boy, Jim Hawkins when he finds a packet in Captain Flint’s sea chest; he could not know that the map inside it would lead him to unimaginable wealth. Shipping as a cabin boy on the Hispaniola, he sails with Squire Trelawney, Captain Smollett, Dr. Livesey, the sinister Long John Silver and a frightening crew to Treasure Island.

Treasure Island is a tale of pirates and villains; maps, treasure, a shipwreck, mutiny, murder, and mayhem, with some of the nastiest pirates to ever sail the seven seas, all leading to a thrilling climax in perhaps one of the best adventure stories’s ever written.

This book is unabridged and the story appears as it was first published in 1883.

29 Indian Fairy Tales: With 53 Illustrations and 29 Free Online Audio Files.


Indian Fairy Tales is written by folklorist Joseph Jacobs and was first published in 1892. This e-book features twenty-nine stories taken from popular South Asian oral history. The stories are complemented by the original fifty-three full color and black-and-white illustrations, which follow the storyline.

Some scholars have stated that India is the original home of the fairy tale and that all European fairy tales have been carried across by crusaders, Gipsies, Mongol missionaries, traders, Jews, and travelers. India is on one branch of the legendary Silk and Spice Routes, over which Europeans and Asians have been traveling for thousands of years. Many common fairy stories of Europe are derived from Indian tales. Comic tales and jingles can be traced without much difficulty back to India. Jacobs has selected the best from the Baluchi folk-tales, the Jatakas, the Bidpai, the Tales of the Sun, and the folk-tales of Kashmir.

Around the World in 80 Days: With 65 Illustrations and a Free Audio File.


Phileas Fogg is a perfectionist in every aspect of his life. He is a mathematically exact person who has never hurried anything and will never take two steps when it can be accomplished in one. Fogg is a rich English gentleman and bachelor living in solitude at Number 7 Savile Row, Burlington Gardens, London in 1872. Despite his wealth, which is roughly £3,000,000 in today’s money, he lives a modest life. Then everything changes when he makes a wager in the Reform Club, stating he can travel around the world within only 80 days betting the equivalent of £1,500,000.

Little does he realize what he has just let himself in for? With his faithful French servant, Passepartout, he embarks upon an epic journey travelling across four continents by trains, steamships, a fighting elephant, a land-ship, and many other unique means of transportation while getting attacked by Indians, and disrupting sacrificial rituals, surviving collapsing bridges, hungry wolves, and fistfights, and numerous other mishaps and surprises along the way.

He is also being followed by Detective Fix; a man convinced Fogg is a cunning thief who stole from the Bank of England, and is now fleeing the country with the money.

Fogg leaves London by train at 8:45 P.M. on Wednesday, October 2, 1872, and is due back at the Reform Club at the same time 80 days later, Saturday, December 21, 1872.

Fogg's character starts off stiff-upper-lipped and precise; however, as the novel goes on the very icy man begins to thaw. He begins to place the importance of friendship and love above everything else. In the end, he is willing to risk losing the bet in order to personally help a friend, and is he starting to fall in love?

Gulliver's Travels: with 72 Illustrations and Photos. Plus, a Free Online Audio File.


Gulliver's Travels is a novel that is both a satire on human nature and a parody of the "travelers' tales" literary sub-genre. It is widely considered Swift's magnum opus and is his most celebrated work, as well as one of the indisputable classics of English literature.

Published seven years after Daniel Defoe's wildly successful Robinson Crusoe, Gulliver's Travels may be read as a systematic rebuttal of Defoe's optimistic account of human capability.

It's a satirical view of the state of European government, and of petty differences between religions.
It can be viewed as an inquiry into whether men are inherently corrupt or whether they become corrupted.
A restatement of the older "ancients versus moderns" controversy.

Although it was by no means intended for them, the book was soon appropriated by the children, who have ever since continued to regard it as one of the most delightful of their storybooks.

12 Years a Slave: With 10 Illustrations and a Free Audio File.


This story is now a Major Motion Picture from 20th Century Fox. 

Twelve Years a Slave is the astonishing true story of Solomon Northup, a free black man who was kidnapped in Washington D.C.in 1841 and then sold into slavery—for twelve long years. The story was written by Northup upon his release. 
Solomon Northup was a free-born African American from New York. He was the son of a freed slave. He was a farmer and violinist and owned a property in Hebron. In 1841, he was kidnapped by slave-traders, who enticed him with a job offer as a violinist. When he accompanied his supposed employers to Washington, DC, they drugged him and sold him into slavery. Before he had a chance to explain the situation (not that anyone believed him) or contact his family, he was shipped to New Orleans where he was sold to a plantation owner in Louisiana. He was held against his will in the Red River region of Louisiana by several different owners for twelve years, during which time his friends and family had no idea where he was, or if he was even alive. He made repeated attempts to escape and get messages out of the plantation. Eventually, he got news to his family, who contacted friends and enlisted the help of the Governor of New York, Washington Hunt. He regained his freedom in January 1853 and returned to his family in New York. 

This book is unabridged and appears as it was first intended. First published in 1853.
