A Desperate Character: A Tale Of The Gold Fever is a novel written by W. Thomson-Gregg. The story is set during the California Gold Rush in the mid-1800s and follows the life of a man named Jack, who is desperate to strike it rich and find gold. Jack is a gambler and a heavy drinker, and he is willing to do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, even if it means putting himself in danger. Along the way, he meets a variety of characters, including other prospectors, miners, and even a woman who catches his eye. As Jack's obsession with finding gold grows, he becomes more and more reckless, putting his life and the lives of those around him in danger. The novel is a thrilling adventure story that explores the dangers and allure of the gold rush, as well as the consequences of greed and desperation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
