Cultures collide in the novella Devil's Ford from Bret Harte. City-bred and professionally trained engineer Philip Carr decides to seek his fortune in the mountains and moves himself and his grown daughters to the Devil's Ford mining camp, where he pits his advanced techniques against local practices—and where his daughters cause a commotion among the camp's denizens, including beloved recurring character Whiskey Dick.
