The author of the ever-popular Anne of Green Gables kept her journal from the age of fifteen till her death. This edition will contain a generous selection in three volumes.
"The Selected Journals of LM. Montgomery...have given me enormous pleasure." Carol Shields, The Boston Globe "These journals are an important contribution, not just to literary and social history but to the body of Canadian literature." - Books in Canada "Montgomery comes to life in a way that is only possible in the pages of a journal." - Toronto Star "These are journals so enlightening, so full of wisdom, humor, philosophy and tragedy that they are worth a winter's reading and reflection." - Ottawa Citizen "We owe Professors Rubio and Waterston a very large debt of gratitude for their patient work on these volumes; they are a record of life-writing unique in our literature and outstanding in any company." - Clara Thomas, Literary Review of Canada "Montgomery's journals provide not only poignant and entertaining reading, but a fine source of social, medical and literary history as well." - Atlantic Books Today "As a document and tribute to the sensibility of a fine Canadian writer, it is invaluable." - Calgary Herald "For anyone under the mistaken impression that Montgomery's novels represent the pinnacle of her literary output, her journals are a must-read." - Canadian Book Review Annual
Mary Henley Rubio and Elizabeth Hillman Waterston are the editors of all five volumes of Montgomery's journals, co-founders and editors of the journal CCL: Canadian Children's Literature, and co-authors of Writing a Life: L.M.
