<p>From the author of countless esteemed classics such as <i>The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn </i> Mark Twain's <i>A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court</i> follows an American engineer named Hank Morgan. When Hank suffers from a severe head injury he falls unconscious only to wake up in the medieval Camelot years. Learning that he has somehow traveled through space and time to be present in 6th century England during the time of King Arthur's rule Hank is shocked and worried when he is discovered by guards. However after the initial confusion and concern Hank understands the potential of his situation and decides to use his future knowledge for the good of the people now around him. Of course the subjects of King Arthur's kingdom were skeptical of him and consequently soon after Hank arrived his execution was scheduled. However because of Hank's knowledge he is able to trick the people including the king himself into thinking that he has special powers. After using a solar eclipse to prove his ability Hank is elected into a position of power using his new authority to modernize and Americanize the medieval people. Accepting the kingdom as his new home Hank build relationships and feels that he is making an immense difference in the lives of King Arthur and his subjects.
