The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Huck was ashamed of the human race after what?
Chapters 15-28
Chapters 15-28
The Duke and King sink even lower in their abuse of human gullibility and nature by pretending to be the uncles of three orphaned girls in order to steal their inheritance. Huck's views on this scheme are clear, as he calls the King and Duke "disgusting" and remarks that he is "ashamed of the human race."
