In "A Cub Pilot" why does the author say Mississippi is "Fickle"

English
1 answer:
avanturin [10]3 years ago
4 0
A, The river is constantly changing. I did this last year so I know what the answer is. Fickle means changing frequently or in my term, stubborn. In his point of view, the river has a mind of its own and changes often. Which he described as "fickle." It may be hard for Twain to pilot a steamboat, if the river is constantly changing.
