- Synopsis
- [from inside flaps] "Torn between a desire to be a part of the rigid Southern social structure and a compulsion to scorn it, Peggy Mitchell grew up something of an outcast. Only after the publication of Gone with the Wind, which she reluctantly relinquished into the hands of a Macmillan editor, did Peggy's fame elevate her above her Atlanta peers. And fame became, in the end, more of a burden than a joy to her. In this fascinating biography, Anne Edwards gets to the heart of the tiny woman who created a legend and, in so doing, became something of a legend herself. The author draws parallels between people Peggy Mitchell actually knew and the characters in her best-seller. We learn that Gone with the Wind, novel and movie, is the culminating triumph of an otherwise tragic life."
