The story follows the life of Jeff Briggs, a young man who is taken under the wing of the charismatic gambler, Jack Hamlin. Jeff falls in love with a beautiful young woman named Mamie Muldoon, but their relationship is complicated by Mamie's past and her association with a group of unsavory characters. As Jeff tries to win Mamie's heart, he must also navigate the dangerous world of gambling and crime that surrounds him. With its vivid descriptions of life in the American West during the late 19th century, A Protegee of Jack Hamlin's is a thrilling tale of love, loyalty, and adventure.1894. Illustrated.
