Queenstacela’s Book Reviews











{August 21, 2008}   North and South

This is a BBC series that I have recently watched on Netflex.  It is a four part mini series in which a girl travels with her family north to a mill town.  Her father teaches and her mother ails.  Margaret Hale shows spunk and courage in helping the mill town.  She goes from helping the workers to helping one of the masters.  Mr. Thorton, shown to be harsh from the beginning, one starts to see the methods to his madnesses.  When Margaret suffers great losses, she moves to London with her cousin.  With the mill with money problems, it is hard to see the way out of the mess.  The show ends the happy ending of course, and it makes we want to go pick the book up that this is based on.  Five out of Five stars
