Summary: Published for all the hoopla surrounding its 75th anniversary…again featuring its original jacket art. First published in the spring of 1936, Margaret Mitchell's Gone With the Wind was an instant success. The book won the Pulitzer Prize in 1937 and the 1939 film version went on to win eight Academy Awards. Since then, more than 300 million people have seen the film and every year hundreds of thousands of copies of the novel are sold in dozens of languages around the world. This edition is being released in time for the 75th anniversary of the novel's original publication, and to tie in to celebratory events occurring throughout the spring. Gone With the Wind is widely considered The Great American Novel; it has and will continue to captivate generations of readers for years to come.
