That's very nice. Please tell your wife that I have forced my husband to drive to Jonesboro on the hottest day of the year to find the farmhouse that was the basis of Tara. I have 3 copies of the book, the movie, several Xmas ornaments from the Tara Museum so I am set if they try to ban it.

A brilliant book of storytelling and history. All taken from the reminiscences of her family who endured the siege of Atlanta.

Thanks, same here. We have been to Georgia to see Margret Mitchell’s hometown. We also have several early and late editions of the book too.

We find GWTW collectors every where we go. It’s is so sad, political correctness and big government want to intrude into our lives at this level and tell us we are racists because of our heritage.

These people who would have us deny or change our heritage are fools. It’s like trying to change the spots on a leopard. There’s nothing we can do to change the past except learn from our past failures and successes.

People descended from slaves must recognize the successes they have achieved since the abolition of slavery, instead they dwell on their failures and continue to blame it on racism.

I fear for America. Like the old South, the America we once knew may soon be GWTW.
