Summary | "Through One Administration" by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around the young officer Philip Tredennis, who visits Washington before heading to a military post in the West. During his visit, he interacts with his relative, Professor Herrick, and learns of the professor's daughter, Bertha, who is about to 'come out' into society, a pivotal moment for young women of that era. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the setting of Washington, D.C., eight years before the significant events unfold. Tredennis meets Professor Herrick, a quiet entomologist, and learns about his daughter Bertha, who is arriving home from school. The professor is both absent-minded and somewhat detached when discussing his daughter, revealing the dynamic between them. Bertha's arrival is marked by excitement and anticipation for her first social season, with her character depicted as lively and charming. As Tredennis interacts with Bertha, hints of deeper feelings and complexities begin to emerge, foreshadowing the emotional entanglements that will develop as the story progresses.
