The one I remember reading which seemed plausible is "General Grant" - B. Clay Shannon

Another grad student, is working on the famous opening to Huck Finn:  the "=
Notice" from "G. G.".(whoever that is??)


  I'm not looking for exhaustive discussion on here, and I know over the ye=
ars I've personally read numerous critical takes on it.  I'm wondering whic=
h readings/ analyses of that "Notice" have seemed to some of you on the Twa=
in LIST to be the most influential/ most interesting/ most decisive in our =
understanding of Twain's use of it?
