Life On The Mississippi
-
Version
1.0
Life on the Mississippi is Mark Twain's memoir of his
youthful years as a cub pilot on a steamboat paddling
up and down the Mississippi River. Twain used his
childhood experiences growing up along the Mississippi
in a number of works, including The Adventures of Tom
Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, but
nowhere is the river and the pilot's life more
thoroughly described than in this work. Told with
insight, humor, and candor, Life on the Mississippi is
an American classic.
