[Jalna 01] • La Naissance De Jalna

First published in 1944, _The Building of Jalna_ is one of sixteen books in

the Jalna series written by Canada's **Mazo de la Roche**.

In _The Building of Jalna_ , Adeline lay thinking about the journey. They were

leaving London. When might she see it again? Perhaps never, with all the

dangers of travel. What would happen to her and Philip in the New World? What

strange distant place lay waiting for them?

The vast and beautiful Canadian wilderness is the setting for this very

special novel about Jalna. Unfolded here is the absorbing story of the

beginning of Jalna --of Adeline and Philip Whiteoak, who come across half a

world to meet the challenge and promise of a new land. For them both, Jalna

not only becomes a symbol of their love, but a heritage for generations to

come.
