Description

A mighty river. A young dreamer. A lifetime of stories flowing between the two.
Blending memoir, travel writing, and sharp social observation, Mark Twain recounts his days as a steamboat pilot and his later return to the great Mississippi River. Along its winding banks, he captures the humor, danger, and wonder of river life -- while reflecting on how America and its people have changed with time.

Praised as "one of Twain's most entertaining and personal works," this classic overflows with wit, nostalgia, and unforgettable characters. Twain's voice -- warm, mischievous, and deeply human -- turns the river into a living symbol of adventure and memory.

If you love vivid storytelling, American history, and humor that feels timeless, this book will carry you effortlessly from page to page.

Open the book -- and let Mark Twain guide you down the river of a vanished America.
