A historical theme that is related to this document is…

“If I had them, there was no way I could lose.” (Cass 323). This is the last sentence in the book, The Elite, and I believe that it wraps up the plot of the book perfectly. In the book The Elite, the competition gets down to the final six girls called The Elite. America now has to work harder than ever to get the Prince’s attention.
