Miggles and Other Stories (Classic Reprint) Synopsis

Excerpt from Miggles and Other Stories

Th. Dentzon has charmingly intro duced some of Harte's California sketches to the French world of readers, and, in an article in the Revue des Deux Mondes, he has given at great length a critical analysis of the powers and genius of our favorite story-teller. Our French and German friends alike wrestle with the difficulties of the untranslatable; but, malgre their failure to master the dialect of the gold-digger, they reproduce ad mirably the delicate finish and felicitous manipulation of the author. Thus his genius has found expression in many languages, and the gentle, loving spirit which animates his works lives and walks in other lands beyond the sea.
