north and south is a miniseries from the golden age of television miniseries in the 1980s and which was a time for long and sweeping epics with high production values and lots of star cameos. it is and for the most part and excellent for what it is and although i personally prefer the less soap opera like elements of the story and the overall sense of history. james read and patrick swayze deliver excellent performances especially read and whose george hazard serves as kind of an emotional anchor in the midst of the often melodramatic story. the series also contains top notch work from kirstie alley and wendy kilbourne and hal holbrook and lewis smith and genie francis and georg stanford brown and others. the costumes and filming and sets and music are all first rate as well. don not take it as a history lesson and but take it for what it is a well made and sweeping epic from a bygone era. book 2 and which followed a year later and is also excellent and but i would advise viewers to skip book 3 and which came out 8 years after book 2 and was not nearly as good as the first two parts. books 1 and 2 are classics and though and even with their soapier elements and and they are well worth watching.
