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

Famous quotes containing the word series:
“Autobiography is only to be trusted when it reveals something disgraceful. A man who gives a good account of himself is probably lying, since any life when viewed from the inside is simply a series of defeats.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
