Rating: Summary: Excellent biography for those wanting to know more about LMM Review: This book is a good, brief source for the information found in L.M. Montgomery's journals. Mario Rubio and Elizabeth Waterson edit the "Selected Journals of L.M. Montgomery" series so they definitely know their subject! This book is ideal for anyone who doesn't want to read all four journal volumes, or who has read all four journals but wants even more information. The authors also, I believe, have access to the original, hand-written volumes of all of LMM's journals. This means they know what's in LMM's final journal, volume 5, which may not be published for some time as some people she wrote about are still living. But they were able to include other details of LMM's life after 1935, which alone makes it worthwhile.
