They said they would rather be outlaws a year in Sherwood Forest than President of the United States forever.In The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, our fun-loving protagonist goes on multiple adventures, getting into all kinds of trouble as he navigates the messiness of boyhood.
Sawyer is now so emblematic of a particular time and place in American history that it boosted the tourist industry of Hannibal, St. Louis - where the novel is set, and where Mark Twain himself grew up.
