About this title

Synopsis

Through nearly 1,000 photographs, this picture essay illustrates the day-to-day activities on the set of the greatest American cinematic saga of all, Gone With the Wind. Many heretofore unpublished photographs-those made by studio photographers, for example, as well as rare snapshots taken by crew members-are included. Many books, essays, and articles have been written on the subject, but this candid chronicle presents a unique view of the daily activities and the many people involved in bringing Margaret Mitchell's unforgettable story to the screen. Herb Bridges is a lifelong fan and collector of Gone With the Wind memorabilia. His previous books include Scarlett Fever and Favorite Scenes from Gone With the Wind.
