Pudd'nhead Wilson (Dover Thrift Editions)

by Mark Twain Author

(From Amazon): Switched at birth by a female slave who fears for her infant son's life, a light-skinned child changes places with the master's white son. This simple premise underlies Twain's engrossing 19th-century tale of reversed identities, an eccentric detective, a horrible crime, and a tense courtroom scene.
