A wonderful family saga

I have come trough the whole series of the Jalna saga whith enthousiasm. Every one of the characters displays a rich personality with virtues and defects. All the human passions are shown whithin the limits of the same family. It is easy to read for young people. It is worth a reimpression

Cozy page-turner!

Although this book (and the series it comes from) is rather out-dated copyright wise, the timeless tale of a family starting with it's matriarch and patriach all the way to the 5 generation is priceless. You will love, empathize, and even loathe characters as they come alive off the tattered and worn pages. This is a must read series!

An excellent series. Once you have read the first one you will be hooked

Wonderful series of books for all ages.

Quite a few years ago I was introduced to the Jalna series. As I was skeptical, I started with the main title Jalna. I was soon caught up in the world of Jalna and the whole Whiteoak family. Their trials and tribulations and victories. It was a wonderful read and I have recommended this series to many people. I have since collected all the titles in the original hardcover "Whiteoak" First editions. They are a truly interesting family and I only wish that there had been more written!~
