About the Book
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 reading public by storm and went on to become the most popular motion picture of all time. It was a phenomenon whose success has never been equaled—and it shattered Margaret Mitchell’s private life. In this commemorative reprint of Road to Tara, Anne Edwards tells the real story of Margaret Mitchell and the extraordinary novel that has become part of our heritage.

Raves and Reviews
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.
– The Wall Street Journal
A remarkably full, lively portrait.
– Sunday Times
[Edwards’s] portrayal of Margaret Mitchell is handled in an objective yet sympathetic fashion. Like any professional biographer, she makes no attempt to hide or distort events in Peggy’s life.
– The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
A compellingly readable biography.
– Daily Mail (UK)
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.
