This is a story of contrasts, between North and South, between rural and industrialized England, and above all between the central characters of Margaret Hale and John Thornton, the millowner...In the shock of her move from a country vicarage to the grim northern industrial town of Milton, she misjudges John Thornton, whose strength of purpose and passion are a match for her own pride and willfulness. When the workers of Milton call a strike, Margaret takes their side, and the two are brought into deeper conflict.
