Mark Twain characterized his novel as \"one vast sardonic laugh at the trivialities, the servilities of our poor human race.\" The Yankee, suddenly transported from his native nineteenth-century America to the sleepy sixth-century Britain of King Arthur and the Round Table, vows brashly to \"boss the whole country inside of three weeks.\" And so he does. Emerging as \"The Boss,\" he embarks on an ambitious plan to modernize Camelot--with unexpected results.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"27th Letter Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67392728793133,"sku":"WHS-f518976d15d94313ac61be6fa1f8e938","price":23.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/3588\/0749\/files\/original_940da891-8e8f-4859-aa02-bfef941ab42c.jpg?v=1787367308","url":"https:\/\/27thletterbooks.com\/products\/connecticut-yankee-in-king-arthurs-court-volume-4","provider":"27th Letter Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
