"Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Chapters 21 to 25" by Mark Twain is a section from a picaresque novel first published in 1884-1885. Following young Huck Finn's journey down the Mississippi River with Jim, an escaped slave, these chapters continue their encounters with two con men—the self-proclaimed "King" and "Duke." The swindlers drag Huck and Jim into increasingly elaborate schemes, including a fraudulent impersonation of dead man's relatives to steal an inheritance from orphaned girls. Huck must navigate moral dilemmas while trying to protect the innocent. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
