| The Selected Journals of L. M. Montgomery, Volume II |
| 1910-1921 |
| Edited by Mary Rubio and Elizabeth Waterston |
The second volume of the immensely successful Selected
Journals of L. M. Montgomery, begins in 1910, the year
before Montgomery's marriage, when she left Prince
Edward Island.
This volume covers the period from 1910 to 1921, a time of
great upheaval, both in her life, and in the world around her.
When she wrote the first entry she was already a
world-famous author, having published Anne of Green
Gables in 1908. She records her thoughts and feelings
about the death of her grandmother, who had controlled her
life so strictly; her marriage and honeymoon trip to
Scotland; and the move from her beloved Prince Edward
Island to a small Ontario town. She describes the rewards
and difficulties of being a successful author, her troubled
married life, and her responses to the possibility, the
actuality, and the aftermath of a World War.
