“Not many months before my friend’s death, he had sent me two sketches of a young American writer (Bret Harte), far away in California (‘The Outcasts of Poker Flat,’ and another), in which he had found such subtle strokes of character as he had not anywhere else in late years discovered; the manner resembling himself, but the matter fresh to a degree that had surprised him; the painting in all respects masterly, and the wild rude thing painted a quite wonderful reality. I have rarely known him more honestly moved.”—Forster’s Life of Dickens.
