In the Carquinez Woods


Book Description

"In the Carquinez Woods" by Bret Harte is a touching tale of trust and deceptions, love and hatred, and courage in the face of adversity. Set in the American Wild West, this book is the adventure of one man as he fights for the love of a woman against a man who seems like the better choice. Love and hate are closely linked and that's never been clearer than in this book.










In the Carquinez Woods


Book Description

The sun was going down on the Carquinez Woods. The few shafts of sunlight that had pierced their pillared gloom were lost in unfathomable depths, or splintered their ineffectual lances on the enormous trunks of the redwoods. For a time the dull red of their vast columns, and the dull red of their cast-off bark which matted the echoless aisles, still seemed to hold a faint glow of the dying day.
