Read the excerpt below from East of Eden by John Steinbeck and answer the question that follows. I must depend on hearsay, on old photographs, on stories told, and on memories which are hazy and mixed with fable in trying to tell you about the Hamiltons. . . . Young Samuel Hamilton came from the north of Ireland and so did his wife. He was the son of small farmers, neither rich nor poor, who had lived on one landhold and in one stone house for many hundreds of years. Source: Steinbeck, John. East of Eden. New York: Penguin Group, 1952. Google Books. Web. 16 May 2011. Based on the excerpt, what is the point of view of the narrator? first-person observer only first-person major character third-person limited third-person omniscient

Respuesta :

The answer is 'first person observer' 
It is not 'first person major character' because the author is not closely related to the major character (Samuel Hamilton).  This is evident by his words of what he is using for his story ('hazy and mixed with fable')  

I hope this helps! Can I have Brainliest? :)

ehhzsh

The answer is 'first person observer'
