Commencing in 1813 and based on real events and real lives, Smoke and Mirrors opens a window onto an often overlooked period of British history. The story follows the life-journey of a young boy from rural Westmorland to Manchester where he goes to work in his brother's cotton mill and discovers a life very different from the one he left behind. Suitable for students in Year 8/7th Grade and above, adults should find this an enjoyable read too.
