Rilla of Ingleside

Rilla of Ingleside (1921) is the final book in the Anne of
Green Gables series by Lucy Maud Montgomery, but was the sixth of the eight
"Anne" novels she wrote. This book draws the focus back onto a single character,
Anne and Gilbert's youngest daughter Bertha Marilla "Rilla" Blythe. It has a
more serious tone, as it takes place during World War I and the three Blythe
boys - Jem, Walter, and Shirley - end up fighting in Europe.

The book is dedicated: "To the memory of FREDERICA CAMPBELL MACFARLANE who
went away from me when the dawn broke on January 25, 1919–a true friend, a rare
personality, a loyal and courageous soul."

It is interesting to note that Rilla of Ingleside is the only Canadian novel
written from a women's perspective about the First World War by a
contemporary.
