Hopefully, this collection will inspire the next Margaret Mitchell. I especially hope young adults enjoy the book, too and draw inspiration from Margaret's early frustrations vis-a-vis the ultimate success she enjoyed. 'She was just a wonderful storyteller, and this collection fleshes in parts of her life that nobody has ever had access to before.I think it will inspire many people to go back and read 'G one With the Wind', and learn more about Mitchell as a person. 'It's really amazing, the way Margaret could write without making corrections, even at such a young age.' says Eskridge. Later, at the Washington Seminary, school for girls, Mitchell was president of the literary society, literary editor of the yearbook, and acted in several drama club productions. If at times indeed Scarlett is aware of her charm even before she sees.
The budding writer made fast friends with a tight-knit group of boys and girls in her new neighbourhood and school, and many of her writings were about the exploits of her gang. Obviously, Margaret Mitchells deliberate choice to present Scarlett as someone.
When she was 12, Margaret's family moved to a Colonial Revival-style mansion situated on a fashionable stretch of Peachtree Street.
The Mitchell family lived in a sprawling, two-story Victorian home with a deep, cool porch where Margaret liked to sit and read. These journal entries and fiction pieces paint a picture of a precocious, imaginative young girl growing up in early twentieth century Atlanta, a member of a family that was considered part of the city's 'old guard'. Margaret Mitchell earned a Pulitzer Prize in Novels for her Civil War epic 'Gone with the Wind' on this day in history, May 3, 1937.
