Toronto, ON: Oxford University Press. Very Good in Very Good- dust jacket. 1985. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 019540503X . Pages toned, some damage to lower edge of dustjacket, creasing and short tear at top edge ; DJ in Mylar A bright solid, book ; B&W Photographs; 9.5 x 1.25 x 6 Inches; 424 pages; "A bestseller in Canada, this book will fascinate the legions of devoted readers of Anne of Green Gables and Montgomery's 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: Montgomery's gifts as a storyteller are as muchin 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 Montgomery journals are especially interesting because they provide a unique social history and the privelege of viewing closely the life of a remarkable woman." .

About Ainsworth Books
Ainsworth Books was for many years a bricks and mortar store in Vancouver, BC. When we acquired the store, we moved to a location in Delta. After three years we moved the stock home and started operation as an online, by appointment only operation. I have worked with books my whole adult life and enjoy giving recommendations.
