Summary | "Psychology and Copper" by W. C. Tuttle is a humorous fictional tale that falls within the early 20th century adventure genre. The story mixes elements of mining prospecting with light-hearted commentary on psychology and luck, revolving around characters exploring their fortunes in the western mining landscape. The narrative likely discusses the clash between scientific approaches to mining and the capriciousness of luck in striking it rich. The plot follows Ike Harper, who partners with the eccentric and scientifically minded Magpie Simpkins as they navigate the challenges of mining claims. After reluctantly accepting the involvement of a quirky capitalist named Peters, they experience unpredictable twists of fortune, culminating in the discovery that a fellow prospector, Tellurium Woods, has struck gold while they had been sidelined by their own theories and plans. Tuttle cleverly intertwines themes of friendship, ambition, and the folly of over-reliance on science, culminating in a comedic revelation of human behavior in the face of unpredictable outcomes in both life and mining endeavors.
