Elizabeth

0/5 ( ratings)

Elizabeth marries into the aristocracy from the comfortable industrial class. Her father, a cotton master of renown in Manchester, despises titles and all who bear them. Elizabeth soon finds that her father's views have some justification.
World War two intercedes in her marriage and Elizabeth is left alone, nursing her sick father-in-law, the Earl of Cumberland while her dashing husband James heir to the title, carves out a brilliant military career. They need an heir but somehow Elizabeth fails to become pregnant and James her dashing husband looks elsewhere.
Meanwhile Elizabeth shrugs off her shy and retiring nature as the whole weight of running a large estate falls upon her shoulders. What will happen when James returns from the war? Will all her work to make the rambling estate pay, be for nothing? How can she bear to leave the place and all its people? Just what has become of James?
