North and South, Paperback

Descriere

Milton is a sooty, noisy northern town centred on the cotton mills that employ most of its inhabitants. Arriving from a rural idyll in the south, Margaret Hale is initially shocked by the social unrest and poverty she finds there. However, as she begins to befriend her neighbours, and as her stormy relationship with the mill-owner John Thornton develops, she starts to see Milton in a different light.
