Set against the backdrop of Elmira, New York, Mark Twain's classic novel features the spirited adventures of a young boy navigating life along the Mississippi River. The story reflects themes of childhood, friendship, and the struggle for identity. Twain's creative process was influenced by his time spent in an octagonal study at Quarry Farm, which now stands on Elmira College's campus, adding a personal connection to the narrative. The author's legacy is further commemorated by his family's burial site in Woodlawn Cemetery.
