These are huckleberry bushes.

He wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885), the latter often called the Great American Novel .

Twain's most famous work, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, is largely a journey down the river.

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (or, in more recent editions, 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.

Twain grew up in Hannibal, Missouri, which provided the setting for Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer .

They also have a feature thickets of huckleberry bushes that grow out of the tops of Redwood trees that are technically known as huckleberry afros, and you can sit there and snack on the berries while you're resting.

The book also introduced, in a supporting role, Huckleberry Finn, based on Twain's boyhood friend Tom Blankenship.

Huckleberry Finn was an offshoot from Tom Sawyer and had a more serious tone than its predecessor.

In between the writing of Pauper , Twain had started Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (which he consistently had problems completing) and started and completed another travel book, A Tramp Abroad , which follows Twain as he traveled through central and southern Europe.

Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn Twain's next major publication was The Adventures of Tom Sawyer , which drew on his youth in Hannibal.

Although not a keen reader, he enjoyed the novels of British and American authors, such as Huckleberry Finn , Treasure Island , Robinson Crusoe and The Pickwick Papers , as well as the novels of Frenchman Alexandre Dumas.

When he was four, Twain's family moved to Hannibal, Missouri, a port town on the Mississippi River that inspired the fictional town of St. Petersburg in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn .

Other accounts have Twain working on Huckleberry Finn in tandem with The Prince and the Pauper and other works in 1880 and other years.

A work seen as capturing fundamental aspects of the national experience and character such as Herman Melville's Moby Dick (1851), Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885), and F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby (1925) may be dubbed the Great American Novel .

During his seventeen years in Hartford (1874 1891) and over twenty summers at Quarry Farm, Twain wrote many of his classic novels, among them The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876), The Prince and the Pauper (1881), Life on the Mississippi (1883), Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885) and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889).
