New revelations and insights about the writing life of the internationally renowned author of Anne of Green Gables.

L.M. Montgomery is known around the globe for the many books she published during her career, beginning with Anne of Green Gables. But what is far less known are the circumstances under which she wrote and the challenges she faced as a bestselling author.

Montgomery scholar Benjamin Lefebvre offers a never-before-seen look at her writing life, encompassing everything from fans to lawsuits to her creative choices, including an unlikely source of inspiration that enabled her to continue writing about her native Prince Edward Island after she moved to Ontario and her controversial decision to downplay Anne's own writing ambitions.

Drawing on Montgomery's journals and letters as well as on a slew of heritage sources that have rarely been part of the conversation, this book includes new insights and fascinating revelations about an author whose work continues to be meaningful to readers all over the world.
