James Fenimore Cooper

Many of Cooper's writings focused on the American frontier. He often wrote about Native American life especially in his Leatherstocking Tales. He also wrote sea novels as well as the historical novel "History of the Navy of the United States of America".

Mark Twain is well-known for his writing about American life, but not for introducing the sea. He did introduce the Mississippi River. Herman Melville is most widely known for introducing the sea in his novel, Moby D__.

when speaking or writing for the sole purpose of providing information in order to give audience members a good basis for making a decision, you would present an informative speech or essay.   because you wouldn’t want to be persuading the audience by arguing for one type of exercise over the other, you wouldn’t choose a persuasive/argumentative technique.   to fairly, and without bias, present information about the pros and cons of each type exercise, a compare/contrast, informative speech/essay would be the best bet.
