Margaret Mitchell: A Scarlett or a Melanie? Book

This book is a collection of articles Susan Myrick wrote over the years about her friend Peggy Mitchell and Gone With the Wind, both the book and the movie, and contains three feature articles about survivors of the War Between the States. The title article was prepared in 1983 by the editor from Sue's diary and from her notes on an article she had begun.

Except for the title article, the stories about Mitchell and GWTW are given in chronological order. There is some repetition, especially in the two reviews of Richard Harwell's book Margaret Mitchell's Gone With the Wind Letters. All articles are included in full because, in spite of the repetition, each one stands alone and contains some information written (or delivered) for different audiences.
