"Exciting and full of action."
The Master Girl
A Romance
By Ashton Hilliers
Author of "As It Happened," etc.

A story of prehistoric times, when nature had evolved an order of beings who, little removed from the brute in many respects, had implanted within them the rudimentary powers and affections which in the subsequent development of the race were to become increasingly expansive. The author presents a vivid picture of this age, when the wife-hunter prowled around the cave of the savage woman he intended to appropriate. Into this life of hard necessity, of physical conflict, of constant peril and unceasing vigilance, is introduced a love affair between a savage man and a savage woman that presents a blending of tenderness and savagery typical of an age when love and hate were more deeply rooted passions than they are to-day.
