About this item

This early work by Lucy Maud Montgomery was originally published in 1933 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'Pat of Silver Bush' tells the tale of Pat's first romance and the wonders of friendship. Lucy Maud Montgomery was born on 30th November 1874, New London, in the Canadian province of Prince Edward Island. Her mother, Clara Woolner (Macneil) , died before Lucy reached the age of two and so she was raised by her maternal grandparents in a family of wealthy Scottish immigrants. In 1908 Montgomery produced her first fulllength novel, titled 'Anne of Green Gables'. It was an instant success, and following it up with several sequels, Montgomery became a regular on the bestseller list and an international household name.
