As they travel, they encounter a floating house, feuding families and

cunning grifters, but more importantly Huck gets to know Jim and regard him

as a friend

and equal, overcoming the racial prejudices of the time, in a landmark narrative

which poignantly addresses the issues of growing up and finding freedom.
