A) Along the way he visited a number of Indian reservations.

Option A is the best choice. Twain's visits to the Indian reservations is not a relevant point to the passage. The passage talks about his journey to become a writer. Each of the other sentences has to do with his career as an author. B talks about when he turned to journalism. C explains his work in journalism. D also explains his journey to become a writer. In D, we also see mention of his time on the riverboats which shows up in his writing.
