John Jakes's Kent Family Chronicles follow several generations of an American family from the years before the Revolution into the nineteenth century. The Bastard introduces Philippe Charboneau, whose move to America begins the Kent line, and The Rebels, The Seekers, The Furies and later books continue through new generations and major periods of United States history. The eight novels are best read in order because marriages, inheritances and family conflicts create the continuity. They are historical family sagas rather than biographies, using fictional Kents to move through wars, politics, westward expansion and social change. Read more Less
