Summary: "The Victory" by Molly Elliot Seawell is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of Lowland Virginia during the turbulent times leading up to the Civil War, the story follows the Tremaine family, particularly focusing on the relationship between the spirited Angela Vaughn and her world-weary tutor, Mr. Lyddon. The novel explores themes of love, loyalty, and the impacts of war on personal choices. The opening of the novel introduces the setting of Harrowby, the family estate, vividly depicting its lush surroundings and rich history. As the Tremaines prepare for a festive Christmas celebration in 1860, the narrative quickly reveals the familial dynamics and the personal aspirations of the characters. Among them, Angela is portrayed as a bright, imaginative young woman caught between her playful childhood and the impending responsibilities of adulthood. The tension is palpable as the characters, particularly Angela and Neville Tremaine, grapple with their evolving feelings amidst the anticipation of war, which looms over their lives and choices. These interactions set the stage for the larger conflicts that the characters will face as the story progresses. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
