Description
The Long Chance is a novel written by Peter B. Kyne. The story is set in the early 1900s and follows the life of a young man named Jack Hemmingway. Jack is a hardworking and ambitious man who dreams of making it big in the world of business. However, his dreams are shattered when he is falsely accused of embezzlement and sent to prison.After serving his sentence, Jack is determined to start over and prove his innocence. He takes a job as a ranch hand in California and soon finds himself caught up in a web of intrigue and danger. The ranch owner's daughter, Ruth Tolliver, is being forced into a marriage she doesn't want, and Jack becomes her only hope for escape.As Jack and Ruth flee across the rugged California countryside, they face countless obstacles and dangers, including ruthless bandits, treacherous terrain, and a relentless pursuit by the authorities. Along the way, they discover a deep and abiding love for each other, and Jack learns that sometimes the greatest opportunities come from the longest chances.The Long Chance is a thrilling adventure story that explores themes of love, redemption, and the resilience of the human spirit. It is a timeless tale of perseverance in the face of adversity, and a reminder that even the darkest moments can lead to a brighter future.In addition there was the evidence of the automatic pistol! Few men in that country carried automatics, for an automatic was a weapon too new in those days to be popular, and the residents of the Mojave still clung to tradition and a Colt's.45. The bandit had shown himself peculiarly expert in the use of his weapon, having shot the pipe out of the messenger's mouth, merely to impress that unimpressionable functionary. It would have been like Bob McGraw, who carried an automatic and was a dead shot, to show off a little!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
