The concluding volume of the Anne of Green Gables series, set during the First World War and told from the perspective of Anne's youngest daughter.
In Rilla of Ingleside, L. M. Montgomery shifts the focus from Anne Shirley to her daughter Rilla Blythe, a spirited and initially carefree young woman whose adolescence is transformed by the outbreak of war. As brothers and friends depart for service overseas, the quiet rhythms of Prince Edward Island life give way to anxiety, sacrifice, and communal resolve.
Blending domestic realism with the larger sweep of global conflict, Montgomery captures the emotional toll of wartime on families at home. Rilla's growth from youthful self-absorption to responsible maturity forms the emotional core of the novel. Published in 1921, the book remains one of the few contemporary Canadian literary portrayals of the First World War from the home front, and it stands as a poignant conclusion to the Ingleside narrative.
