A heroine from Bronte country, and a Robin Hood of the Industrial Revolution: two people powerfully attracted to each other, on opposite sides of a little-known class war that saw the ruin of England's green and pleasant land...Shirley Keeldar is a 'brave, true, beautiful lady' in the eyes of Tom Mellor, the leader of a band of strong men in their doomed fight against the machines that are destroying their lives. But in the class-ridden, war-torn Regency world of 1812, she's also his enemy. (Libraries Australia record).
