- A True Classic!
There are good reasons why Gone With The Wind, published 73 years ago, is a classic among classics, a Pulitzer Prize winner, and has sold over 28 million copies in more than 37 countries.

I would not call this book to be in "good" condition. Some of the pages are going to be falling apart. At the front page, a public library's stamp is still on.However, it was delivered within a reasonable time frame.
