By Mark Twain
The unconventional starts off with Tom Canty, an impoverished boy dwelling together with his abusive kin in London. someday Tom Canty and Prince Edward, the son of King Henry VIII and Jane Seymour meet and as a jest, swap outfits. whereas wearing the pauper's rags, the Prince leaves the palace to punish the shield who knocked Tom down. although, the lads glance remarkably alike and since they swap outfits, the palace guards throw the prince out into the road. The Prince fares poorly in London simply because he insists on proclaiming his identification because the precise Prince of Wales. in the meantime regardless of Tom's repeated denial of his birthright, the courtroom and the King insist that he's the real prince long gone mad. Edward ultimately runs into Tom's relations and a gang of thieves and Twain illustrates England's unfair and barbaric justice process. After the loss of life of Henry VIII, Edward interrupts Tom's coronation and the lads clarify, change locations, and Edward is topped King of britain. (non illustrated)
