Critter News
OCTOBER 16, 2009
Several pieces express Twain’s contempt for the idea of hunting for sport, including a memorable passage from a sequel to Huckleberry Finn in which Huck shoots a bird and feels immediate remorse and shame (“Huck Shoots a Bird”). The book also contains writings by Twain against vivisection. Interesting. You can buy it here.
