The Garden of Luzon is a novel written by Julian Scott Bryan and published in 1912. The story takes place in the Philippines during the early 20th century, when the country was under American colonial rule. The protagonist of the story is a young American named Richard Gordon, who travels to the Philippines to work as a teacher.While in the Philippines, Richard becomes involved with a group of Filipino nationalists who are fighting for independence from American rule. He also falls in love with a young Filipina woman named Luzon, who is the daughter of a wealthy landowner. The two of them embark on a passionate love affair, despite the fact that their relationship is frowned upon by both American and Filipino society.As Richard becomes more involved in the nationalist movement, he is forced to choose between his loyalty to his country and his love for Luzon. The novel explores themes of colonialism, nationalism, and interracial relationships, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the complex social and political dynamics of the Philippines during this period.Overall, The Garden of Luzon is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a unique perspective on a fascinating period in Philippine history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
