C. Harbaugh is a novel set during the late 19th century that explores themes of vengeance, bravery, and the clash between different cultures in the American West. The story revolves around Midnight Jack, a notorious road agent, and his quest to rescue his sister and avenge his family's honor against their Sioux captors. This work falls within the genre of adventure fiction and paints a vivid picture of the lawless era of the American frontier. The narrative follows Midnight Jack as he navigates the treacherous landscape marked by conflict between settlers and Native Americans. After his sister, Dora, is captured by Sioux warriors, Jack embarks on a perilous journey to save her, encountering various challenges including confrontations with enemies like the whisky smuggler Tanglefoot and the vile Golden George. Accompanied by allies like Rube Rattler and Gopher Gid, Jack must confront his past while striving for redemption. The climax unfolds against the backdrop of the sun-dance ritual, where Jack’s determination and courage are put to the ultimate test as he fights for his sister's freedom and faces profound moral dilemmas. Through thrilling encounters and emotional revelations, the book delivers a gripping tale of loyalty and retribution in a tumultuous period of American history.
