Rilla of Ingleside 

Rilla of Ingleside (1921), by L.M. Montgomery is the eighth of nine books in the Anne of Green Gables series and the sixth ’Anne’ novel published. Set during World War I, it focuses on Anne and Gilbert’s youngest daughter, ’Rilla’ Blythe, and details her life in Glen St. Mary while her brothers and many of the local young men fight overseas. It is notable for being the only Canadian novel about WWI written from a woman’s perspective, and also for mentioning the Gallipoli campaign and the terrible sacrifice made by Australian and New Zealand forces.
