Of Bret Harte’s literary style, the London Spectator wrote, “No living writer has struck so powerful and original a note as he sounded throughout the tales which made his reputation.” Harte was acclaimed for his gripping tales of life in the rough, lawless, early California mining camps—exemplified in the riveting The Story of a Mine.
