North and South Book 2 ★★★ 1986

Equally dramatic sequel follows the southern Main clan and the northern Hazard family into the Civil War as friendship and romance struggle to survive the fighting. Casnoff is a notable presence as the aptly named Bent, who will go to any length to settle old scores with both families. Based on the John Jakes novel “Love and War.” Originally broadcast as a six-part TV miniseries; on six cassettes. The last of the Jakes trilogy, “Heaven and Hell,” was finally filmed for TV in ‘94 but proved a major disappointment. 570m/C VHS .
