Summary
On the same autumn day in Tudor London, two boys are born: Edward, Prince of Wales, wanted by all England, and Tom Canty, a beggar's son who is not wanted at all. Years later they meet by accident, discover they could be twins, and trade clothes for a few minutes of play. The guards mistake the prince for a beggar and throw him into the street; the pauper is left inside the palace wearing a crown.
What follows is a kingdom seen from both ends of the social ladder: a boy who has never been hungry learning what law and custom do to the poor, and a boy who has never been free learning what a throne costs. Mark Twain keeps the adventure quick and the satire sharp, with a royal procession, a prison cell, a mad hermit, and a coronation that turns on a missing seal.
This unabridged recording keeps all thirty-three chapters intact, from the first cry in the mud to the last day of the reign.
