Acerca de este libro
Margaret Mitchell only published one complete novel, but it was quite the book - Gone With the Wind earned her the Pulitzer Prize in 1937 and National Book Award for 1936.

Identificación de primeras ediciones
The first edition, first printing of GWTW numbered only 10,000 copies, and they bore an incorrect release date of May, 1936. These inaccurate first printings, and corrected second printing of 25,000 copies, were both actually released to the American public in June 1936. Signed first editions are valued from $10,000-$25,000, depending on the book's condition, of course. The true firsts with the May 1936 date also have the original publisher's price of $3.00 and a "Spring Novels" advert with Gone With the Wind as the second title down as indicators of edition.
