Then I jumped into the conoe and made for the cave. Jim was fast asleep. I shook him.
"Get up, Jim!" I said. "They´re after us!"
The way Jim worked during the next half hour showed how frightened he was. By that time everything was on the raft. We glided along in the shadows, past the foot of the island, never saying a word.
On the run from his cruel father, Huck Finn meets Jim, a slave also on the run from his equally hard master. Together they travel down the Mississippi river, going from one adventure to another.
The Adventures os Huckleberry Finn is both a delightfully enjoyable adventure story and a classic of American humour.
