A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court

⚙ One man. One ancient kingdom. One hilarious collision between modern science and medieval superstition.

In A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, Mark Twain delivers a brilliant blend of time travel, biting satire, and swashbuckling adventure. When Hank Morgan, a 19th-century engineer from Connecticut, is mysteriously transported to the court of King Arthur, he must use his knowledge of technology, democracy, and reason to survive—and shake up the entire feudal system.

⚔ Medieval knights meet modern know-how.

Armed with his Yankee ingenuity, Hank quickly rises to power in a world of armored knights, superstitious peasants, and absolute monarchs. But his bold reforms and technological innovations spark cultural chaos—and raise deep questions about power, progress, and what it means to be civilized.

Both comic and cutting, this is Twain at his most imaginative and provocative.

More than a fantasy, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court is a powerful critique of blind tradition, romanticized history, and the misuse of authority—delivered with Twain's trademark wit and irreverence.
