| Summary | "Their Pilgrimage" by Charles Dudley Warner is a novel written during the late 19th century. The story follows the Benson family, particularly their daughter Irene, as they embark on a journey to various resorts in the southern United States, seeking a milder climate and new social experiences. The opening chapters introduce a vibrant cast of characters and explore themes of social class, identity, and the changing nature of American society in the post-Civil War era. The beginning of the novel sets the stage at Fortress Monroe, where the Bensons have just arrived. Irene is captivated by the beauty of the hotel and the surrounding scenery, contrasting her excitement with her father's more pragmatic view of the bustling resort life. The unfolding interactions highlight the social dynamics at play, as Mr. Stanhope King, a fellow traveler, becomes intrigued by Irene and her family. The chapter deftly explores various character interactions, teasing at romance and social commentary as they encounter other guests at the hotel while also hinting at Irene's inner feelings and desires, establishing a rich backdrop for the family's subsequent adventures.
