A review by angus_mckeogh
A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court by Mark Twain

2.0

This book is not known as one of his masterpieces but I was curious if it'd be an entertaining read based on the time travel premise. It had some cogent and funny parts. There's was a good bit about the incongruous mix of violence and religiosity in the people living in the Middle Ages. A lot about class distinction and the Medieval mind's inability to grasp certain concept. And of course some poking fun at the nature of Twain's "modern" society (particularly slavery). With the content it just didn't end up being amazing likely due to the "dated" material. But okay nonetheless.
