This original series chronicles the Winslow family from Gilbert, who was on the Mayflower, continuing on through American history until Luke, who fought in World War II. This collection ends with the sinking of the Titanic.
As of 2007, there are 40 books in the House of Winslow series, but the first part of the series was originally published with one set of covers (starting in 1986). In 2004, Bethany House started republishing them all with a new set of covers. Everything from that point on (Shining Badge forward) was never published with the original design. The new covers do not feature a book number, but instead focus on the year the story took place.
This package includes the first 22 with original covers*. All are in good shape, save book 4, which has a pretty bad coffee stain, visible throughout and all along the bottom and fore-edges of the pages. Used sets of this same collection start at $99 on Amazon! (last checked June 3, 2016)
