Description
The Spinning Jenny was invented in 1770, and with that, a new era of manufacturing and industry changed lives everywhere within a generation. A world filled with unrest wrestles for control over this new world order: A mother's husband is killed in a work accident due to negligence; a young woman fights to fund her school for impoverished children; a well-intentioned young man unexpectedly inherits a failing business; one man ruthlessly protects his wealth no matter the cost, all the while war cries are heard from France, as Napoleon sets forth a violent master plan to become emperor of the world. As institutions are challenged and toppled in unprecedented fashion, ripples of change ricochet through our characters' lives as they are left to reckon with the future and a world they must rebuild from the ashes of war. -- ,source not specified.
Description
La revolución está en el aire 1792. Un gobierno despótico está decidido a convertir Inglaterra en un poderoso imperio comercial. Y, desde el otro lado del mar, suenan tambores de guerra mientras Napoleón Bonaparte comienza su ascenso al poder y prepara un violento plan para convertirse en emperador del mundo. Kingsbridge se asoma al abismo Los nuevos avances industriales se imponen de manera implacable, sacudiendo las vidas de los trabajadores de las prósperas fábricas textiles de Kingsbridge. Las máquinas abren un mundo de oportunidades ligado, sin embargo, a la crueldad más despiadada. Una nueva tiranía surge en el horizonte
Y a medida que el estallido de un conflicto parece cada vez más cerca, la historia de un pequeño grupo de personas -la decidida hilandera Sal Clitheroe, el idealista David Shoveller y Kit, el brillante hijo de Sal- se convertirá en el símbolo de la lucha de toda una generación que desea progresar y pelea por un futuro sin opresión... -- ,Amazon.
