Which narrative point of view is shown in the passage?

This Anselmo had been a good guide and he could travel wonderfully in the mountains. Robert Jordan could walk well enough himself and he knew from following him since before daylight that the old man could walk him to death. Robert Jordan trusted the man, Anselmo, so far, in everything except judgment. He had not yet had an opportunity to test his judgment, and, anyway, the judgment was his own responsibility.

Answer:

The passage is written in the third-person limited point of view. In this narrative perspective, the narrator is an external observer who knows the thoughts and feelings of one specific character, in this case, Robert Jordan. The use of pronouns such as "he" and "his" indicates that the narrator is not one of the characters but has insight into the thoughts and emotions of Robert Jordan. This allows the reader to have a close understanding of Robert Jordan's perspective, but the narrative remains limited to his individual experience and knowledge.
