- Description
- John Jakes combines compelling plot with carefully researched historical detail and strictly delineated characters to tell stories that span generations and centuries. His series (the Kent family saga, the North and South trilogy) and standalone novels place compelling moments of historical conflict at center stage -- from Revolutionary-war era Boston to antebellum Charleston. Protagonists from different generations of a specific family pursue their lives during great events, with sharply contrasting examples of good and evil among family members. Though dark subjects are present, Jakes's overall tone is optimistic and affirms love, honor, and personal responsibility. Start with: The Bastard
