This and That – Tom and Huckleberry.

Mornin’ Book Lovers! Here’s another Famous Last Line from Twain’s novel, “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.” — “I got to light out for the territory ahead of the rest, because Aunt Sally she’s going to adopt me and sivilize me, and I can’t stand it. I been there before.”
Twain’s 1884 novel is contentious to some, but its last lonely line is pure genius. In Huck’s sweet accent, “Twain captures the spirit of an adolescent nation determined to resist domestication and to keep exploring the unknown.” What say ye? Later Book-Loving Gaters!
