North and South was Published in 1854, the story is set in the fictional industrial town of Milton in the North of England. Forced to leave her home in the tranquil rural south, Margaret Hale settles with her parents in Milton where she witnesses the brutal world wrought by the industrial revolution and employers and workers clashing in the first organised strikes. Sympathetic to the poor whose courage and tenacity she admires and among whom she makes friends, she clashes with John Thornton, a cotton mill manufacturer who belongs to the nouveaux riches and whose contemptuous attitude to workers Margaret despises.
The first time I known this story was on middle June when I was studying English through watching movie. Then I found the ebook on wechat reading. I like both hero and heroine who with precious soul very much. And I'm so glad they got together finally.The right person will eventualy appear only if I am good enough.
Good story , poor typography.
