Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 1st ed., 1st printing ; 127 p. : ill. ; 22 cm ; LCCN 96006872 ; ISBN 9780684824284, 9780752804828, 0684824280, 0752804820 ; OCLC 34192604 ; LOC No PS3525.I972 L67 1996 ; Dewey 813/.52 ; sea-green and white cloth, in pictorial dustjacket ; Until recently, the odd thought Margaret Mitchell had only one story to tell: Gone With the Wind. Now meet a heroine to match Scarlett: Courtenay Ross, a feisty, independent-minded woman, and the two men -- one a cool-headed, well-heeled gentleman, the other a hot-blooded, pugnacious sailor -- who adore her. A tale of yearning, valor, and devotion, Lost Laysen enthralls from its delightful beginning to its unforgettable end. Equally intriguing is the story behind the story -- the real-life romance that inspired Mitchell: how she gave the original manuscript as a gift to her beau. Henry Love Angel, and how the manuscript, along with Mitchell's intimate letters and treasured photographs, were lovingly safeguarded only to be discovered decades later in a shoebox ; Born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, Margaret Mitchell (1900-1949) was an American author and journalist. As a former newspaper reporter, she began Gone with the Wind in 1926. Only two people-the author and her husband-saw the manuscript before it reached the publisher. Gone with the Wind was awarded the National Book Award in 1936 and the Pulitzer Prize in 1937, and is one of the most bestselling novels of all time.; slight wear to dustjacket ; Contents: Introduction : Margaret Mitchell and Henry Lave Angel, a lost love -- Lost Laysen : the novella ; A love triangle in the South Pacific is the plot of this recently discovered short novel by the author of Gone with the Wind, written when she was 16 years old.
