Description
A time-displaced Connecticut engineer armed with modern knowledge wages technological warfare on Arthurian England, exposing both the allure of chivalric fantasy and the destructive hubris of 'progress.' Twain's savage satire demolishes romantic medievalism while questioning whether enlightenment without wisdom leads anywhere but ruin.
