The Outcasts of Poker Flat

I felt “The Outcasts of Poker Flat” was a great story of morality and the different personalities described in each character that made them influential to the story. I love stories of adventure and this work was just such a story. I was able to relate well with John Oakhurst when he discussed continuing to move on to Sandy Bar instead of stopping for the night. It was obviously a bad decision to stop given the people who were in company. Had they kept moving, it is very likely everyone would have lived and all would be able to start anew with a clean slate. I enjoyed the read and I was able to connect well with this author because of the human nature described throughout the story.
