Although Montgomery downplayed the impact that reviews had on her writing career, claiming to be amused and tolerant of reviewers\u0026amp;#x2019; contradictory opinions about her work, she nevertheless cared enough to keep a large percentage of them in scrapbooks as an archive of her career. This volume presents more than four hundred reviews from eight countries that raise questions about and offer reflections on gender, genre, setting, character, audience, and nationalism, much of which anticipated the scholarship that has thrived in the last four decades.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEach volume in \u003ci\u003eThe L.M.
