The Prince of England and a pauper find their identities switched.
***
The Prince and the Pauper remains one of Twain's more popular novels, having been adapted many times for the stage, screen, and elsewhere. When Tom Canty, a young pauper in London, meets Prince Edward, the two switch clothes and assume the other's identity. Tom then learns the life of royalty, while the true prince discovers the troubles of commoners.
