One evening in Paris in 1879, The Stomach Club, a society of American   writers and artists, gathered to drink well, to eat a good dinner and hear an   address by Mark Twain.  He was among   friends and, according to the custom of the club, he delivered a humorous   talk on a subject hardly ever mentioned in public in that day and age.  After the meeting, he preserved the   manuscript among his papers.  It was   finally printed in a pamphlet limited to 50 copies 64 years later. The speech   satirically dealt with masturbation and the bane it is on our society.  His remarks rubbed Victorian society the   wrong way, and were censored for a century. 
Mark Twain (pseudonym of Samuel Langhorne Clemens) (1835-1910),   quintessential American humorist, lecturer, essayist, and author wrote The   Adventures of Tom Sawyer.

What follows is a comedic adventure where Hank, utilizing his knowledge of nineteenth century technology, attempts to improve the lives of the people of Camelot, thus altering the course of history. Written to satirize nineteenth-century ideals of the Middle Ages, Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court is now regarded as one of the first American time-travel narratives.

Il s'essaie ici au périlleux apprentissage de la bicyclette, découvre les propriétés explosives des paratonnerres et lutte avec une machine à écrire dont les défauts semblent l'emporter sur les qualités. Curieux et maladroit, incorrigible et tenace, l'auteur d'Huckleberry Finn livre ici, avec l'humour qui l'a rendu célèbre, un aperçu réjouissant des affres d'un pionnier face aux grandes inventions de son temps.
