Tales of the West

Tales of the West is a collection of short stories written by Bret Harte and published in 1902. The book features a series of tales set in the American West during the mid-19th century. The stories explore the lives of people living in the frontier towns and mining camps of California, Nevada, and other western states. The characters in the stories are a mix of cowboys, miners, gamblers, and other colorful figures who are struggling to survive in a harsh and unforgiving environment. Harte's writing style is known for its humor, irony, and vivid descriptions of the western landscape. The stories in Tales of the West are both entertaining and insightful, providing a unique perspective on the history and culture of the American West.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
