Set amid social and political unrest in the Yorkshire woollen district towards the end of Napoleonic Wars, Charlotte Bronte's only historical novel chronicles the struggles between mill operator Robert Moore and protesting workers in the Luddite movement. So determined is he to restore his family's honour and fortune, Robert denies his affections for Caroline Helstone in favour of a proposal to wealthy mill owner Shirley Keeldar. The relationship and contrast between the heroines' lives capture the roles of women in their society.
