“The God of Civilization” is the title of a romance, by Mrs. M. A. Pittock, which is soon to be published. The scene of the opening chapters is laid in San Francisco, and the story is said to have a very tropical flavor. Mrs. Pittock is well known on the Pacific Coast, and has written much for the eastern magazines and papers.—Argonaut, San Francisco, Oct. 6.
“The God of Civilization” is the odd title of a charming story of adventure, which has just been issued by the Eureka Publishing Company, Inter-Ocean building, Chicago. The author is well known in Portland, being the wife of G. W. Pittock, formerly of Portland, and the daughter of R. Weeks, Esq. The favorable notice which her writings have attracted of late from leading eastern papers is very flattering.—Sunday Oregonian, Oct. 5.
One of the brightest books of the season has just made its appearance, entitled “The God of Civilization.” The author is Mrs. M. A. Pittock, whose writings in Chicago and eastern papers have been favorably commented upon. It is an extremely interesting novel, treating of life in the mid-Pacific tropics in a style that shows that she is both familiar with the people and the customs, and loves the scenes which she describes so vividly.—New York Journalist, Oct. 11.
