Books like Winston Graham Poldark Series 12 Books Collection Set

As anticipated, this 12-volume series DID keep me busy busy from August to November. I loved this series, even the 2nd generation (books 8-12) which many people reviewed as not being as good as the 1st generation (books 1-7). The only exception is the very last book, Bella, which Winston Graham could have left unwritten (that's what a lot of reviewers said, and I have to agree with them about that particular book). Books 1-7 deal with Ross Poldark and his family. I read books 1-7 back in the 80's when the Masterpiece Theater productions were aired, and loved them. Fortunately I held onto the books, as they went out of print for a while, and the new reprinted books by Sourcebooks are said to be very poorly done. I didn't know until very recently that Graham had taken up writing about the 2nd generation something like 10-15 years later. I was thrilled that I was able to get ahold of all five from used bookstores.
