As a writer in San Francisco, Bret Harte wrote rough and tumble stories about the American West. Harte's characters are very colorful; however, the reader will be pitying most of them. Harte's view of the West is realistic in that he does not romanticize the frontier at all. Life is hard, and the men and women have tough hides with tender hearts. This study considers six of Harte's stories: "The Luck of Roaring Camp," "The Outcasts of Poker Flat," "Tennessee's Partner," "M'liss," "An Ingenue of the Sierras," and "A Protegee of Jack Hamlin's."
