BRET HARTE.

“In none of Bret Harte's stories, whether in prose or verse, are the
characteristics of his genius more striking than in these.”
— London
Spectator.
“It has all the traits of Bret Harte's inimitable style and humor. The
grotesque, the droll, and the pathetic are intermingled with extraordinary
felicity; and the good is evolved out of the roughest natures in a
manner that displays an acute and humane insight into character.”
—
Philadelphia Age.
“The whole book exhibits the peculiar quality of his genius, and is an
excellent entertainment.”
— Boston Daily Advertiser.
