The Ballantyne Series

The Ballantyne Novels chronicle the lives of the Ballantyne family, from the 1860s through the 1980s, against a background of the history of Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe).

A fifth novel seeks to combine the Ballantyne narrative with that of Smith's other family saga, The Courtney Novels.

The books are set in the following time periods:

  1. A Falcon Flies 1860
  2. Men of Men 1870s-1890s
  3. The Angels Weep 1st part 1890s, 2nd part 1977
  4. The Leopard Hunts in Darkness 1980s

Famous quotes containing the word series:

    There is in every either-or a certain naivete which may well befit the evaluator, but ill- becomes the thinker, for whom opposites dissolve in series of transitions.
