The Annotated Anne of Green Gables by LM Montgomery in a large hardcover edition edited by Wendy E. Barry, Margaret Anne Doody and Mary E. Doody Jones. In this fully annotated edition of Anne of Green Gables, readers will appreciate more clearly than ever before the scope and depth of this extraordinary novel. These editors provide a richly illustrated, completely revised text, along with hundreds of notes describing the real-life characters and settings Anne encounters, the autobiographical connections between Anne and Maud Montgomery, and the book's astonishing range of literary, Biblical, and mythological references. Additional essays offer fascinating background information on such topics as the geography of Prince Edward Island (where 'Anne' takes place); the education, orphanages, music, and literature of Anne's time. Elegantly and beautifully designed, with generous illustrations from previous editions, photographs of the places the novel inhabits, and explanatory drawings that reproduce the texture of Anne's world.
