An American

1909 · 10 pages

"An American Girl" by Eleanor M. Ingram presents a romantic conflict set in the Hudson River valley. The story follows Delight Ellison, a young woman from an old Anglo-Saxon family with deep New England roots, and Frank Savello, the Italian-American son of a Florentine scientist and Venetian mother. When her father forbids their relationship based on ancestry and nationality, Savello leaves to establish his career, promising to return when he has removed her father's objections. The narrative spans five years, showing Delight's constancy despite her father's attempts to interest her in Miles Allen, a suitable New England suitor. The story chronicles her interior devotion and resolute waiting, culminating in the mysterious appearance of a newly constructed house on their estate's property.
