First published in 1958, Centenary at Jalna brings us to 1953 when the Whiteoaks gather to mark the 100th anniversary of their estate.

It has now been a century since Captain Philip and Adeline Whiteoak arrived in Canada and built their legacy.

While this should be a time of festivity for the clan, tension and discontent surround the forthcoming marriage of a new generations Adeline and Philip, grandchildren of the originals.

To make matters worse, young Dennis risks tragedy and Wakefield finds himself in a doomed relationship.

As the celebrations loom closer, the question remains: Will the Whiteoaks be able to overcome their difficulties one last time? This is book 16 of 16 in The Whiteoak Chronicles.

About the Author: Mazo de la Roche, in 1927, was an impoverished writer in Toronto when she won a $10, 000 prize from The Atlantic Monthly for her novel Jalna.

The book became an immediate bestseller and was eventually adapted for stage, screen, and television.
