"Summer Dream" by Martha Rogers is written about a time period when people addressed each other by proper names during the late 1800s. This was a period after the Civil War and our country was expanding its territories to the West. There were trains to travel in, but most people still depended on horses to travel. This story takes place in Connecticut during the late winter and early spring and is focused on women who had graduated from finishing school in order to be able to live and entertain in the upper crust of society. Manners were highly regarded as essential tools to learn and use at all formal occasions.
The main characters were young adults who were looking for a husband or wife, so they dated in couples to attend social events. Chaperones were required all the time.
Martha Rogers is very astute at bringing this out in this emotional story. Her book is a clean Christian story and I gave her 5 stars for content and a great story.
