Synopsis

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. Gone with the Wind took the American public by storm and went on to become one of the most popular books and motion pictures of all time. The book was a phenomenon whose success has never been equaled, but it shattered Margaret Mitchell's private life. In Road to Tara, Anne Edwards tells the real story of Margaret Mitchell and the extraordinary novel that has become part of our heritage.

Goodreads review by Cheryl on November 08, 2022

Hmmmmmm. Well. I must admit that Edwards did a great job with making a "biography" that was an easy read for me. However, the subject of the biography, Margaret Mitchell, was a tough woman for me to understand and by the end, almost impossible to sympathize with. There is a reason Scarlett O'Hara ha......more
