If you can stand one more letter regarding “Huckleberry Finn,” I urge everyone interested in other points of view and new insights to buy or check out the July 14, 2008, copy of Time Magazine’s annual “Making of America” Issue. It has a picture of Mark Twain on the front, and the title says “The Dangerous Mind of Mark Twain.” Subtitled articles include:

“How he changed the way we view politics,” “Why he was ahead of his time on race,” and “What his writing can teach America today.” I read things that I had not known or thought of before, and it gave me much to ponder.
