This exquisitely designed leather-bound edition of Margaret Mitchell's only novel comes with a glorious gold-foiled cover, a satin-ribbon bookmark, gilded edges and beautiful endpapers. Ideal to be read and treasured, it makes for a perfect addition to any library. It's April 1861. Georgia, southern United States. Scarlet O'Hara-the vivacious, narcissistic and pampered daughter of a plantation owner in Atlanta-in a fit of choleric contempt over rejection by her desired man, Ashley Wilkes, hurls a figurine against the wall.
