Books with author Arch Montgomery

On Prince Edward Island, where Anne Shirley grew up in the sea-sprayed town of Avonlea, there was no shortage of wonderful stories. There was the case of Ludovic Speed, who wouldn’t propose to the woman he had courted for fifteen years until Anne devised a plan to “speed” him up… if it didn’t backfire and break his heart. But no one could blame mischievous Anne for the hilarious battle of the sexes that erupted when a man-hating woman and her cat got quarantined in the same house with a woman-hating bachelor and his dog. From sprawling Penhallow Grange, where a family waits nearly forever for two quarreling lovers to break their stubborn silence, to the tumbledown farm of Old Man Shaw, who awaits the retum of his beloved daughter, L. M. Montgomery has written twelve tales of secret hopes and hidden dreams, filled with enchantment and humor.

"Kilmeny looked up with a lovely grace,But nae smile was seen on Kilmeny?s face;As still was her look, and as still was her ee,As the stillness that lay on the emerant lea,Or the mist that sleeps on a waveless sea.. . . . . . . . . . . . .Such beauty bard may never declare,For there was no pride nor passion there;. . . . . . . . . . . . .Her seymar was the lily flower,And her cheek the moss-rose in the shower;And her voice like the distant melodyeThat floats along the twilight sea."
