More About the Author

Anna Jacobs was born in England but emigrated to Australia thirty years ago. Now she and her husband spend part of the year in each country. She's totally addicted to writing, and produces three novels a year. If she slows down, new characters nag her till she tells their stories. And after all, dusting isn't important - story-telling is. She was first published in fiction in 1992 and as of April 2011, she has had 53 novels published, a few under other names. At the moment Anna is writing historical sagas for one UK publisher and modern novels for another, but she doesn't guarantee not to try other genres. Writing is too much fun to be limited in any way. She's been married to her own hero for many happy years, and they have two daughters and one grandson.

Anna also wrote fantasy novels as Shannah Jay, and these books have now been reiussed as Kindle books.

5.0 out of 5 stars I loved it as much as I loved Salem Street, August 29, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: High Street (Hardcover)

I read Salem Street three times waiting to get my hands on High Street. I can't wait to read Ridge Hill. Anna Jacobs brings her characters to life and you laugh, cry, and worry right along with Annie Gibson.

4.0 out of 5 stars I loved this book!, January 9, 2001

This book was great...better than Salem Street. Annie's character comes alive and you feel her pain and triumps right along with her. Easy reading with a little, classic romance. I hope to find the next in the series, Ridge Hill.

5.0 out of 5 stars Salem Street, January 4, 2005

"Salem Street is Book One of the Gibson Family Saga, a five part saga, set in the nineteenth century in industrial Lancashire, UK. Each book is complete in itself, but follows the lives of the same family.", from Anna's web sight http://www.annajacobs.com. So, this is a five part Saga, not a trilogy! I loved the first three books but can not get the last two. I guess US citizens will have to buy from the UK!
