About
At war against Napoleon near bankrupt English mill-masters
experiment with a new factory system acquiring machines to replace
men. A young worker leads the Luddites attacking mills and
smashing machines. With increased assaults and even murder, North
England feels the grip of terrorism. Government agents attempt to
suppress the rebellion. In 1812 there are more British troops in North
England than there were fighting Napoleon.
