Rilla of Ingleside: Rilla of Ingleside is the eighth of nine books in the Anne of Green Gables series by Lucy Maud Montgomery, but was the sixth " Anne" novel in publication order. This book draws the focus back onto a single character, Anne and Gilbert&#39 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&mdash Jem, Walter, and Shirley&mdash along with Rilla&#39 s sweetheart Ken Ford, and playmates Jerry Meredith and Carl Meredith&mdash end up fighting in Europe with the Canadian Expeditionary Force. The book is dedicated: " To the memory of FREDERICA CAMPBELL MACFARLANE who went away from me when the dawn broke on January 25, 1919&mdash a true friend, a rare personality, a loyal and courageous soul." Frederica, Maud&#39 s cousin and best friend, grew up in Park Corner, PEI, but died in the worldwide flu epidemic of 1918/19. Frederica may have been the model for Diana Barry, Anne of Green Gables&#39 " bosom friend" : both had unusual, non-Christian first names, and the fictional Diana&#39 s husband was named, perhaps not coincidentally, Fred. Rilla of Ingleside is the only Canadian novel written from a woman&#39 s perspective about the First World War by a contemporary. The novel is also groundbreaking as it is one of the first non-Australian texts to mention the Gallipoli campaign and the sacrifice made by the ANZACs. At some point after Montgomery&#39 s death in 1942, publishers quietly trimmed Rilla of Ingleside of a few thousand words, removing among other things passages containing historically accurate but now offensive anti-German sentiment. The trimmed version was the only available " in print" version for decades, until a new, restored and annotated edition of Rilla of Ingleside, edited by Benjamin Lefebvre (editor of Montgomery&#39 s The Blythes Are Quoted) and Andrea McKenzie, was published by Viking Canada in October 2010.
