Dear Friends: I got this email overnight and had not really thought much about the question/issue. Any thoughts out there??? Discuss . . . . Subject:"Great" American Reads Dear Dr. Bush, I write to inquire if any Mark Twain scholars or societies have mounted a protest against PBS for omitting The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn from its “Great American Read” programming and to volunteer my assistance if possible. I am a former secondary school English teacher and a current Jonathan Swift scholar. Thank you. Patrice J.
