The Landscapes of Anne of Green Gables: The Enchanting Island that Inspired L. M. Montgomery Hardcover – March 27, 2018

I wanted to get this book for my friend's birthday. It was hard to find so I was so pleased to find this copy in very good condition and arrived early, which is always a delightful surprise! My friend and I both love Anne of Green Gables and this is a lovely companion book to help make Anne's stories come to life. Now I will have to find a copy for myself!⁰

Bought this ahead of a trip to PEI, because it had won a travel book award. It is gorgeous and I don’t regret buying it at all, but I wouldn’t consider it a travel book. Some of the photos were taken by LMM in the early 1900s, so not what the typical traveler is probably looking for.It is still worth buying though. It’s really lovely.

We just returned from Prince Edward Island and this book captures the delight of connecting with that beautiful place and a beloved childhood story.

Easy to see pictures, colorful, not as many larger scenes as I'd like.

I was thrilled to see that the bookbinding is beautiful. I will not be using the sleeve the book arrived in. The pictures are clear and lovely. I wasn’t sure if it’s a book I’d enjoy reading but it’s thoroughly engaging and I’m already halfway through it. I had traveled to PEI and instantly fell in love with it. I cried when I left and this book helps me feel connected to this favorite spot of mine.

Thank you Net Galley for a review copy of this book. Catherine Reid's "The Landscapes of Anne of Green Gables" is a well researched and remarkable book. As an enthusiastic and lifelong Anne of Green Gables fan, I LOVED this book! This book has an outstanding sense of place and delves into Montgomery's inspiration she evoked from the landscape of Prince Edward Island, where Anne of Green Gables is set. I have always wanted to visit PEI and the stunning photography in this book fulfilled part of this wish. I enjoyed reading more about LM Montgomery as well as the similarities between her and Anne. I count this book and as a MUST OWN keepsake for fans Anne of Green Gables. I cannot wait to gift it and share it with others!

As a fan of all the “Anne” books,I appreciated this book. It gives a great background to the series. The comparison of L.M. Montgomery life on Prince Edward Island and that of her main character Anne Shirley is quite well shown. The photos showing the places on the island that inspired and were incorporated in the stories give the reader more insight into the author’s life and background. Recommend this book as a companion to all of Montgomery’s books

I loved this book! I love seeing pictures of where Anne and her friends had their adventures. The photographs are beautiful and the author includes Ms. Montgomery’s personal photographs of her special places such as Lover’s Lane. This is a must have book for any true Anne fan. I can’t wait to visit Prince Edward Island in person someday.
