You find your soul then…you realize that youth is not a vanished thing but something that dwells forever in the heart.  And you look around on the dimming landscape of haunted hill and long white sand-beach and murmuring ocean, on homestead lights and old fields tilled by dead and gone generations who loved them…you will say, ‘Why…I have come home!’” - L.M. Montgomery, "Prince Edward Island", The Spirit of Canada, 1939

Readers of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s work can appreciate the deep reverence the author felt for the island she lived on as a young girl.  And fans of Road to Avonlea can see that the mood of her words is perfectly reflected in the photography of the series.
