Product Description

From the Back Cover

From the very first meeting of Philly Maguire and Richard Swainbank, a pattern of overpowering love, conflict, hatred, and secrecy was born. For although Philly and Richard were on opposite sides of the mill floor, they recognised - both of them - that they were equally matched in strength of character and the capacity for overwhelming sexual passion.

Thus began the forty years of conflict between the two families - the Swainbanks, cushioned by wealth but tearing each other to pieces with the violence of their emotions - and the Maguires, proud, betrayed, and led by the vibrant and magnificent Philly.

A major saga of the Lancashire cotton mills - of the strong, violent, real people who both owned them, and worked in them - and of the dangerous things that love can do to families throughout the generations. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best fiction book I have ever read!, 12 Jun 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: With Love from Ma Maguire (Paperback)
I am a great fan of Ruth Hamilton and have read all her books. This was the first book I read and have read it many times since and I am still enthralled in the plot each time. Her sense of realism is palpable and the atmosphere of the book sucks you in to the extent that you really cannot put it down. The matriachal character of Ma McGuire has you empathising with her every thought and movement and her story line seems to draw you in as if you are one of her family. This book handles unobtainable love, romance, tradegy and sorrow in a deeply sensitive way and is finer in content than any Catherine Cookson novel I have read. It's a must for a cold night or a summer holiday read!

With Love From Ma Maguire
Ruth Hamilton -With love from Ma Maguire



Ruth Hamilton is fast becoming one of my favourite authors. She writes sagas about Northern England going back to the previous century. Ruth Hamilton is the bestselling author of A Whisper to the Living, With Love From Ma Maguire, Nest of Sorrows, Billy London's Girls, Spinning Jenny, The September Starlings, A Crooked Mile, Paradise Lane, The Bells of Scotland Road, The Dream Sellers, The Corner House, Miss Honoria West, Mulligan's Yard, Saturday's Child, Matthew and Son and Chandler's Green. Born in Bolton, which is the setting for many of her novels, she has become one of the north-west of England's most popular writers. Ruth Hamilton has spent most of her life in Lancashire. and now lives in Liverpool.

With love from Ma Maguire is a saga which spans 40 years of life in the Lancashire cotton mills. This book tells of the lives and loves of two families from different backgrounds, the rich Swainbanks and the poor Maguires.

Those of you who like Catherine Cookson will love the Ma Maguire story it contains all the ingredients you and I look for in a book to relax with at the end of the day. The characters are well drawn and the plot complicated and believable. It is one of those stories which you don't want to stop and I am sure the characters would make an interesting television programme for family viewing.

Read and Enjoy
