Montgomery: Vol. 1","description":"\u003cp\u003eA bestseller in Canada  this book will fascinate the legions of devoted readers of Anne of Green Gables and Montgomerys other Anne books. Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942) kept extensive journals for most of her life  beginning them in 1889 when she was fourteen and continuing them until shortly before her death. Spontaneous and frank  they are unusual for their narrative interest: Montgomerys gifts as a storyteller are as much in evidence here as in her novels. This first volume takes her to 1910  the year before her marriage  and culminates with the publication of Anne of Green Gables. The autobiographical content will intrigue every dedicated fan of the Anne books. But the Mongomery journals are especially interesting because they provide a unique social history and the privelege of viewing closely the life of a remarkable woman. About the Author: Mary Rubio is Literary Adviser to the Estate of L.M. Montgomery and is preparing the authorized biography. Elizabeth Waterston is Professor of English at the University of Guelph. Together they edit CCL: Canadian Childrens Literature: A Journal of Criticism and Review\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44986044022837,"sku":"ByrdShop_019540503X","price":38.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780195405033.jpg?v=1770882553","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-selected-journals-of-l-m-montgomery-vol-1","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
