In the Carquinez Woods

"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.
