Quote:
"The story starts calmly enough, although there are enough wild animals in the early scenes [of The Girl from God's Country] to populate several menageries. Miss Shipman is hail-fellow-well-met with bears, mountain lions, wild cats, deer, foxes and even the exclusive skunk. It is after the rescue of Carslake from the river and Neeka's transplanting to his California home that the real excitement begins. There is enough in the last three reels for a dozen serials, all the way from an earthquake to a trans-Pacific airplane race in which Neeka and a blind aviator do amazing things."
