Excerpt from The Motion Picture Story Magazine: August, 1912 And this well-meant isolation is just wherein the brewing trouble with Jennie lay. She had come - God only knows exactly why or how - with her gold-crazed father, from the warm heart of a little California city, to the frozen, pass-locked wilderness of the snowbound North. Down there in the cozy city, her pretty face had been the center around which a genial, admiring throng revolved in a merry whirl of parties, dances, and offers of mar riage. All this to the girl became second nature; the social element was strong within her, so was the feminine love of masculine admiration. But her heart, being young, resisted bond age, and within her veins flowed red blood that cried out for a larger life, for experience on a heroic scale. So, when her father told her, one spring day, that he had sold everything he had in the world, and intended to join the northward rush for gold, only for a moment did a void fill her breast. The next instant it pulsed with desire for adventure, and, per haps, with an inherited lust for gold. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
