Publishers Weekly
The author of the beloved Anne of Green Gables is paid tribute in Lucy Maud Montgomery: A Writer's Life by Elizabeth MacLeod, in the same format as her previous Alexander Graham Bell. In addition to learning about the author's early life growing up on Prince Edward Island, fans of Anne can see the house that served as model for Green Gables, and will see that the author had much in common with her fictitious heroine. The right-hand page of each spread includes quotes and photos of the author and people, places and things that were important to her. A timeline and related Web sites close this informative paper-over-board volume. ( Mar.) Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.
