   Extractions: Student, University of North Carolina at Pembroke Bret Harte was born in Albany, New York, to a family of little financial means. His father, Henry Hart, was the son of an immigrant, Bernard Hart, who moved to America and became rich. However, Bernard left Henry and his mother to marry another lady. Henry, raised in a Dutch Reformed church, finished his college education but didn't receive a diploma due to the fact that he owed a ninety dollar graduation fee. Bret's mother, Elizabeth Rebecca Ostrander Hart, was from the English and Dutch culture. Not much is known of her other than she came from a cultured, middle-class stock and was Episcopalian. His parents met during a visit to the Brett's home and married in 1830. Francis Bret Hart was born in 1836. Harte's first years in California were not easy ones. He lived with his family for a few months, but then he sought out work anywhere he could find it. Bret drifted from job to job until he became settled. He tutored the children of ranchers and even rode shotgun for a stage coach. During these years he kept a diary and he continued to write poetry. Harte thought of himself as a failure, but he didn't give up. Finally, the opportunity arrived for him to work as a printer for the Northern Californian

    Extractions: "Surely the dominant figure of this emerging literary movement was young Francis Bret Harte. In the local color decade of 1865 to 1875, he would rise from local fame (and sometimes infamy) as a satirist, poet, editor, and short story writer to become the most celebrated figure of current American literature, before slipping away into a sad obscurity."

    Extractions: FRtR Outlines American Literature The Rise of Realism: 1860-1914: Bret Harte (1836-1902) Index Bret Harte is remembered as the author of adventurous stories such as "The Luck of Roaring Camp" and "The Outcasts of Poker Flat," set along the western mining frontier. As the first great success in the local colorist school, Harte for a brief time was perhaps the best-known writer in America such was the appeal of his romantic version of the gunslinging West. Outwardly realistic, he was one of the first to introduce low-life characters cunning gamblers, gaudy prostitutes, and uncouth robbers into serious literary works. He got away with this (as had Charles Dickens in England, who greatly admired Harte's work) by showing in the end that these seeming derelicts really had hearts of gold. Index
