Maggie Craig
At the turn of the century, the North of England was a hard, bleak world. A world where joy and love were the words in someone else's book - where men were resigned and women oppressed. Strong-willed and spirited, rebellious and beautiful, Maggie Craig flew in the face of the harshness of that world... and found her passion was to cost her dearly all her life. Pregnant by a man who cannot marry her, she has to fight for her own identity amidst the prejudices and cruelties of her age.
