She is supported in her efforts by her mother, who is a strong and independent woman, and by a group of teachers and mentors who recognize her potential.As Evangeline grows up, she faces many obstacles and setbacks, but she never gives up on her dreams. She falls in love with a young man named Jack, but their relationship is complicated by social and economic differences.
