Perhaps the most classic novels of Mazo de la Roche’s monumental family saga are these four, which were the first books written in the series, though they fall in the middle of her books’ multi-generation narrative. These, including the original novel
Jalna, were the books that first established the world of Jalna in the minds of readers and de la Roche herself, and set the stage for the twelve sequels and prequels that were to follow.
