- Abstract
-
Former owner: L.M. Montgomery. Provenance: research by donor has verified that volume was owned by L.M. Montgomery. There is an inscription that reads: "L.M. Montgomery Macdonald 1927" with a small cat drawing next to her name. The date indicates that Montgomery would have been living at the Norval Manse in Ontario. Beneath this inscription is another one in a different handwriting that reads: "H. du D. Rothwell". There is also a small newspaper clipping glued to the page. The word "Wawataysee" at the bottom of the clipping could possibly indicate Wawataysee Island located in Muskoka, Ontario. Wawataysee Island is located approximately 50km away from where she stayed at Bala, Ontario for two weeks and inspired her to write "The Blue Castle," the only book to be set outside of Prince Edward Island. Bound with dark green cloth and boards, red lettering. Printed at The Chapel River Press Kingston, Surrey, England.
