The Complete Works Of Bret Harte - Collected And Revised By The Author
Volume 1: Poems And Drama
Published by Chatto And Windus: London 1882

" The Complete Works of Bret Harte - Volume I: Poems and Drama (1882), published by Chatto and Windus, London, presents the American author's collected verse and theatrical writings, carefully revised by Harte himself. Known for his vivid depictions of life in the California Gold Rush, Harte brings the same wit, sentiment, and humanity to his poetry and dramatic work. The poems range from humorous ballads and Western sketches to pieces of reflective lyricism, revealing his gift for characterisation and regional colour. The included dramatic works, though less widely known, demonstrate his ability to translate his frontier themes to the stage with both pathos and irony.

This first volume stands as an important literary record, offering a self-curated insight into the author's artistic range and evolution. It reflects Harte's transition from journalist and storyteller to mature literary craftsman, whose influence extended to later American and British realism. This book would appeal to collectors of 19th-century American literature, admirers of Gold Rush-era writing, and readers interested in the early transatlantic reception of Bret Harte's work."
