A beautiful edition of a classic story with all 12 original illustrations.The short story "The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg" was released in 1900 in a collection of the same name which also contained 14 other short stories previously published in periodicals. They all showcase Twain's great satirical wit. The title story was meant to retell the Garden of Eden story in a modern setting. The supposedly "incorruptible" town of Hadleyburg offends a stranger who seeks revenge by attempting to corrupt the town.
