Lucy Maud Montgomery The Gift of Wings

"The writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery are so familiar ... that it's easy to feel as if we know her. But the ... woman behind the ... story of Anne of Green Gables experienced the dark side of life, as well as the intense joy of creativity. This ... biography of one of Canada's most celebrated writers looks far beyond Montgomery's own published journals and draws on a wealth of previously undiscovered material."--Back cover.
