Chronicles of Avonlea is a collection of short stories by
L. M. Montgomery , related to the
Anne of Green Gables series. It features an abundance of stories relating to the fictional Canadian village of Avonlea, and was first published in 1912. Sometimes marketed as a book in the Anne Shirley series, Anne plays only a minor role in the book: out of the 12 stories in the collection, she stars in only one (‘The Hurrying of Ludovic’), and has a small supporting role in another (‘The Courting of Prissy Strong’). She is otherwise only briefly mentioned in passing in five other stories: ‘Each in His Own Tongue’, »Little Joscelyn», ‘The Winning of Lucinda’, »Quarantine at Alexander Abraham’s’ and ‘The End of a Quarrel’.
