“Two Ways of Viewing the River” by Mark Twain: Response Paper “Two Ways of Viewing the River” is a short excerpt from Mark Twain’s autobiography that compares and contrasts Twain’s point of view as a Mississippi River boat pilot. In my opinion these few paragraphs are pitch perfect as well as technically masterful. The descriptive details in paragraph 1 were especially impressive.

He accomplishes this empathetic move between Jim and the reader by giving
