"Unabridged republican"--T. p. verso. Originally published by Chapman & Hall, London, 1855.
Summary:
This richly textured novel of romance and class conflict explores the dichotomies between the pastoral South and industrial North during England's mid-Victorian era. Praised by Dickens as "an admirable story," this is a turbulent tale of a woman torn between her sympathy for discontented millworkers and her love for the factory's owner.
