The Building of Jalna takes readers to the origins of the Whiteoak family saga. Captain Philip Whiteoak and his bride, Adeline, arrive from India to the shores of Lake Ontario. They name their future home Jalna and become involved in intrigue, jealousies, and festivities even as their family grows and their house takes shape.

Adeline Whiteoak is at the height of her sway as a vigorous and domineering matriarch of 80. Augusta and her sons, Nicholas and Ernest, are now middle-aged and her younger son, the handsome and indolent Philip, is father to the younger trio at Jalna. Meg is in the midst of an unhappy love affair and Renny, a fiery youth, is full of his first passion. The story turns now to the feud between him and his grandmother, and Cousin Malahide from Ireland.
