The Mark Twain Journal, Spring 2024 Edition and 2025 Edition. In the 2024 Edition, a high school teacher of mine, Mr. John Pascal, offered me to take a class specializing in Mark Twain studies. He then wrote an article that was included in the 2024 Edition of The Mark Twain Journal, and quoted me from papers that I had submitted at the time. In the Spring 2025 Edition, I have my own article that is published about the banning of books in school systems, and my main thesis focuses on the unnecessary banning of Twain novels, namely The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.
Jim: The Life and Afterlives of Huckleberry Finn's Comrade, written by Shelley Fisher Fishkin, similar to the 2024 Edition Mark Twain Journal, Twain scholar Fishkin includes some insights that I had made in papers I wrote when talking about how school systems teach Huckleberry Finn.
