Query: A Fan of Catherine Cookson since the 1960's.

I read this book when it first came out, and decided to read it again. It is still my favorite book by Cookson. I've always saidthe charaters in her books are never happy until they are a hundred and one, but Cookson makes you feel the sadness and the happiness, and her books always make me glad that I did not live at that time, with all the poverty, when it was only the rich and the poor.
