| Summary |
"Dorothy's Triumph" by Evelyn Raymond is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows young Dorothy Calvert as she returns home to her beloved Aunt Betty and their ancestral estate, Old Bellvieu, after a winter spent at a Canadian school. As Dorothy re-establishes connections with her aunt and friends, themes of family, friendship, and personal growth begin to unfold. At the start of the book, Dorothy and her friend Jim Barlow are traveling by train through Maryland, happily reminiscing about past adventures. Their conversation reveals Dorothy's joyous transition from an uncertain childhood to a fulfilled life with her wealthy aunt. Upon arriving at Bellvieu, Dorothy is eager to reunite with Aunt Betty, who has been unwell but is excited to see her again. The beginning sets the stage for Dorothy's anticipated summer filled with music lessons from a renowned teacher, Herr Deichenberg, and the planning of a camping trip with friends, promising an exploration of both the beauty of nature and the dynamics of youthful relationships.
