Présentation de l'éditeur :

“The Luck of Roaring Camp” is about the birth of a baby boy in a 19th-century gold prospecting camp. The boy’s mother, Cherokee Sal, dies in childbirth, so the men of Roaring Camp must raise it themselves. Believing the child to be a good luck charm, the miners christen the boy Thomas Luck. Afterwards, they decide to refine their behavior and refrain from gambling and fighting. At the end of the story, however, Luck and a villager, Kentuck, perish in a flash flood that strikes the camp.
