Book Description
Margaret Mitchell was as complex and compelling as her legendary heroine, Scarlett O’Hara, and her story is as dramatic as anything out of her own imagination—indeed, it is the basis for the legend she created. In this commemorative reprint of Road to Tara, Anne Edwards tells the real story of Margaret Mitchell and the extraordinary novel that is part of our heritage.
Review
A compellingly readable biography.
A remarkably full, lively portrait.
If you’re a Gone With the Wind fan, you won’t want to miss this nugget. Anne Edwards . . . has put together a highly readable and exciting portrait of the Atlanta reporter-turned-housewife who penned the best-known epic of the Old South and gave fiction one of its most memorable heroines. . . . Road to Tara is a fine literary biography, a real page-turner. . . . Road to Tara deals with the creation and publication of Gone With the Wind in marvelous, suspenseful detail.
It is hard to imagine this biography being better done. The research and documentation are comprehensive. It is candid but sympathetic. Road to Tara is itself hard to put down. . . . A rich narrative, peopled with vivid characters full of drama.
