The Old Factory: A Lancashire Story is a novel written by William Westall in 1885. The story is set in Lancashire, England, during the Industrial Revolution, and follows the lives of the workers in a cotton mill. The main character is a young woman named Mary, who works in the factory alongside her father and brother. Mary is a strong-willed and independent woman who dreams of a better life for herself and her family. However, her hopes are dashed when her father is injured in a factory accident and her brother is forced to leave to find work elsewhere. Mary is left to care for her father and to fight against the harsh working conditions in the factory. Along the way, she meets a young man named John, who shares her dreams of a better life. Together, they work to improve the conditions in the factory and to create a better future for themselves and their fellow workers. The Old Factory: A Lancashire Story is a powerful and moving tale of love, struggle, and hope in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
