About this ebook

This novel begins in the small town of Tuolumne, California early in the twentieth century. A young schoolmaster enters the building he has been assigned as a schoolroom and makes sure it is ready for the arrival of his pupils. On their arrival, he prompts them, as he often does, to give him any news they have. One girl excitedly says that Cressy has returned from Sacramento.

Bret Harte

Bret Harte (1836–1902) was an author and poet known for his romantic depictions of the American West and the California gold rush. Born in New York, Harte moved to California when he was seventeen and worked as a miner, messenger, and journalist. In 1868 he became editor of the Overland Monthly, a literary journal in which he published his most famous work, “The Luck of Roaring Camp.” In 1871 Harte returned east to further his writing career. He spent his later years as an American diplomat in Germany and Britain.
