An interesting sequence of letters, written by L.M. Montgomery early in the century, were found in 1956 among the papers of Ephraim Weber who was living in the West. Now lodged in the National Archives in Ottawa, the letters, reproduced here exactly as they were written, form a fascinating footnote to the history of Canadian letters. These letters are of interest and importance not only because they were written during the years of gestation and birth and outstanding success of the book Anne of Green Gables, but also because they reveal a lively extrovert in an eminently healthy balance. This should prove an absorbing book, both to those adults who have nostalgic memories of "Anne," and to writers who need encouragement in their struggle for literary recognition.
