Tom Sawyer is the title character of the Mark Twain novel The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876). He appears in three other novels by Twain Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884), Tom Sawyer Abroad (1894), and Tom Sawyer, Detective (1896).
The fictional character's name may have derived from a real-life Tom Sawyer with whom Twain was acquainted in San Francisco, California, while Twain was employed as a reporter at the San Francisco Call. The character himself is an amalgam of three boys Twain knew while growing up.
The name Sawyer is derived from the Mississippi River pilot's term for a "tree in the bed of the river with its branches reaching the surface and moving up and down with the current." Twain was a river pilot at one time, and many of the adventures of his character, Tom Sawyer, are connected with the Mississippi River, and partly derive from this experience.
Tom Sawyer lives with his Aunt Polly in the Mississippi River town of St. Petersburg, Missouri. After playing hooky from school on Friday and dirtying his clothes in a fight, Tom is made to whitewash the fence as punishment on Saturday. At first, Tom is disappointed by having to forfeit his day off. However, he soon persuades his friends to trade him small treasures for the privilege of doing his work. Tom falls in love with Becky Thatcher, a new girl in town, and persuades her to get engaged to him. Their romance collapses when she learns that Tom has been engaged before to a girl named Amy Lawrence. After Tom accompanies Huckleberry, the son of the town drunk, to the graveyard at night to try out a cure for warts. At the graveyard they witness the murder of young Dr. Robinson by the Native-American Injun Joe. Scared, Tom and Huck run away and swear a blood oath not to tell anyone what they have seen. Injun Joe blames his companion, Muff Potter. Tom, Huck, and Tom’s friend Joe Harper run away to an island to become pirates. The boys become aware that the community is sounding the river for their bodies. Tom sneaks back home one night to observe. After a seeing the suffering of his loved ones Tom is struck by the idea of appearing at his funeral and surprising everyone. He persuades Joe and Huck to do the same. Their return is met with great rejoicing, and they become the admiration of all their friends. Soon Muff Potter’s trial begins, and Tom overcome by guilt testifies against Injun Joe. Potter is found not guilty, but Injun Joe flees the courtroom through a window. Summer arrives, and Tom and Huck go hunting for buried treasure in a haunted house. After venturing upstairs they hear a noise below. Peering through holes in the floor, they see Injun Joe enter the house disguised. He and his companion plan to bury some stolen treasure of their own. When they see Tom and Huck’s tools they become suspicious that someone is sharing their hiding place and carry the gold off instead of reburying it. Tom goes on a picnic to McDougal’s Cave with Becky and their classmates. That same night, Huck sees Injun Joe and his partner making off with a box. He follows and overhears their plans to attack the Widow Douglas, a kind resident of St. Petersburg. Tom and Becky get lost in the cave, and their absence is not discovered until the following morning. The men of the town begin to search for them. Tom and Becky run out of food and candles and begin to weaken. The situation increases when Tom looking for a way out of the cave meets Injun Joe who is using the cave as a hideout. Eventually Tom finds a way out. A week later, Tom takes Huck to the cave and they find the box of gold, the proceeds of which are invested for them. The Widow Douglas adopts Huck, and, when Huck attempts to escape civilized life, Tom promises him that if he returns to the widow he can join Tom’s robber band. Huck agrees.
