In 16th-century London, two young boys who look identical—Edward Tudor, the Prince of Wales, and Tom Canty, a poor beggar boy—meet by chance and decide to swap clothes for fun. Trapped in each other's lives, they explore the extremes of wealth and poverty in Tudor society. Detailed period artwork and action-packed panels bring the humor and drama of Twain's social satire to life.
