Very different takes on Margaret Mitchell's history on this road trip. The Margaret Mitchell's House perspective was that these were all stories made up in Margaret's head based on people she heard stories about as a kid..all fictitious stories.. If you saw the Vlog a few days ago with Peter Bonner kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5bReIJ7aZdlbbs he goes into detail with references as to how TRUE Gone With The Wind's stories were.. Very different perspectives...

Those are my hydrangeas from my garden at the gravesite of Margaret!! I placed them there!! I am a Windie, obsessed with GWTW since I was a little girl. Fun to see your vlog. I live in the Atlanta area and I try to visit Margaret's grave once a year. I always cut hydrangeas from my garden and place them at her grave. I have a photo of myself placing them there. So fun that you took your viewers on a MM tour :)

[@jeanfeeley7786]

Awesome, just awesome! I remember I was a senior in an all girls Catholic boarding school when I read this book. The head nun told me she wanted to be around when I finished the book and I was sitting in the dinning room having breakfast when I finished the book and I was devastated! Great book I walked around with that book from the dorm to school to lunch duties to back to school then to my job in the robery where I mended the nuns clothes, then across the quad to the dorms for dinner, carrying that book and reading! I could not put it down. A true masterpiece! Thank for showing me where this book was written and informing me of how she died, tragic for sure. Thank Jordan for a beautiful job!

[@magicskyway]

I have a May, 1936 edition of GWTW! First edition, first printing!

[@janadeubner9883]

Ok I'm jealous! hahaha! Lucky you!

[@monilaninetynine3811]

Wow! It's a great book

[@christinam3313]

Awww so blessed! Earliest edition I have was 1964 printing and I do have a first edition but it’s not in great condition so I won’t open it. Lol 😂

[@anncarper8163]

That's great! Hold on to it, that's a treasure!

[@jairosantanafigueroa4139]

You’re so lucky. How much did it cost you?

[@mell682]

Oh! First time I ever see a heater on the ceiling !!!

[@southerngirlraven7]

Knowing that her mother died one day before she returned home in real life makes the scene where Scarlett returns home to Tara to find her mother died the day before even more 💔.

[@Tam5115]

This is just IMO, but I think the book was based on the family stories she was told her entire life. I think I saw footage of Margaret Mitchell talking about how her family would take drives out to the remains of these plantations and tell her about the war and life then etc... She was born less than 40 years after the war, I'm sure many who had lived through it were in her life. I still think fondly of all the family stories my grandma told me. I would ask her to tell them again and again. (And there was no historic event like a war involved!)

[@lynnesherwood3748]

My all time favorite book and movie. Thanks zJordan for sharing some of the backstory. Great vlog!

[@racheldelgado9216]

What a wonderful vlog. Learning so much about Margaret Mitchell and GONE WITH THE WIND. Thanks, Jordan.

[@marycahill546]

Greetings from Canada. Margaret Mitchell became wealthy from the book, but continued to live simply. She had a secret friendship with the head of Morehouse College in the 1940s. She spent many thousands of dollars educating medical professionals for the Black community -- all in secret. Bravo Margaret! She wrote that the novel was a story of survival. She said her characters were either people with gumption, or people without gumption!

[@leggettnada1]

Wonderful vlog Jordan. I bet you would be a great teacher at a school. You have the knowledge, a personality and charm. You certainly would have the kids attention lol. I talked to a family member awhile back that was in a band and he told me that it's hard for him to sleep at night because the only thing he thinks about is music. He said it drives him crazy. I thought to myself the other day if anything like that goes through your mind thinking about your vlogs. You do such a wonderful job and I for one appreciate all that you do. Can't wait until tomorrow. Much Love to you and Jah....

[@CottageCupcake]

leggettnada1 I couldn’t of said it better💘

[@leggettnada1]

@@CottageCupcake Thank you so much that was kind of you to say that.

[@onetadecker7036]

Gone With the Wind was or is one of my favorite movies. I'm 58 years old and I still watch it.

[@anncarper8163]

Loved this vlog. I've read GWTW five or six or 327 times. One of my all-time favorites. So it was really cool to hear about the background of it and see where she actually wrote it. The whole place looks like a cozy little nook. ❤️

[@chrishutchinson2297]

I really enjoyed this log on Margaret Mitchell. She wrote my favorite book and it's interesting to hear about her life. So sad she didn't really write anything else but I can see how writing Gone With the Wind could take a lot out of a person. Thank you for showing us a glimpse of her life.

[@johanfretzen1852]

Thanks Jordan all your lionhearts love you always brotha !

[@moss81ish]

I love how you cover classic, literature, and music. A lot of younger people these days who are vlogging don’t appreciate older things. I mean tjust looking at your cemetery visit some of the younger generation focused on Chris Cornell for example and you focused on some older movie stars. It’s just nice to see someone from the younger generation who still appreciates the classics like I do.

[@kelliintexas3575]

I absolutely LOVED this Vlog!! This is one of my favorite TOP 5 MOVIES! That door should stay with the museum. Protected for years to come. I have got to go there someday! I was SO hurt that they took this off the TV they wipe ALL those amazing actors off the screen & the legacy each one leaves behind. That movie led me into history! Suprised no jack a$$ has tried to burn this place down.

[@joanr381]

Thank you so much for taking us into the life and death of Margaret Mitchell......I think anyone who has read this book remembers exactly how old they were and the circumstances...it makes that much of an impact. I was a 16 year old when I first read it.

[@auntieelizabethleepermartinez]

A Wonderful Vlog on Margaret Mitchell author of Gone with of the wind

[@alexp9089]

As always, when Jordon posts his videos I get so curious and inspired I start researching. So Margaret’s hubby died from a heart attack 2 years after Margaret and yes indeed, there are theories that Margaret’s “accident” was covered up. Just love the stories you tell, I learn so much.

[@lindagerdner4311]

I have been to Margaret's apartment but I learned much from your vlog. I didn't know she hid chapters around the house. I thoroughly enjoyed this adventure!

[@dazzlingchick]

💋Adding this to another one of my Favorite vlogs! Great Job Jordan!!! Fantastic book, movie and back story on Ms. Mitchell! Thank you so much. ~Blessings and safe travels. ~Love and Light 💖Carli

[@lauraodle5816]

I had no idea she died so young and tragically. I have learned so many things about people and places through Jordan's videos! Thank you for your dedication and hard work!

[@jasonmcgovern1364]

Hi Jordan, how fantastic that you got to see the door and the original painting from the film. I thought that painting was stunning, luckily that's another piece of old Hollywood history saved. I loved all the Movie Premier photos, letters, tickets etc. It really was a massive Premier in the golden age of Hollywood. Such a shame she died so young. Great vlog Jordan.

[@1028dianemarie]

Nothing in that house is original -not even the walls. When I was there in 1992 that house was a ruin.

[@gordongordon4434]

Seeing your trip through Mitchell's house and in the bedroom, I noticed the bedside clock was showing the time of her death, according to the Atlanta Journal newspaper <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="719">11:59</a>PM, being almost the same.

[@user-bp5dk9pe8e]

Thanks SO MUCH for this fantastic video, Jordan! I love the way you approach all of your endeavors. You're so articulate and well read, and prepared. I can't wait to see all of your offerings. I Hope you liked Atlanta? I was only there for one day only during the summer, and BOY was it HOT!!! Anyway, again congratulations for such a terrific tour. I really always look forward to the your next endeavor!! I know I'll love it already. Rob in NYC.

[@jeffkidd7409]

Gone with the Wind was a great book, and movie. Different times back then. Great vlog Jordan. You have covered so much of the story and documented artifacts before they are gone, from this movie. Thank you so much. Gonna go now and have an onion sandwich (haha)

[@donnaowens3349]

I have ancestors buried at Oakland Cemetery, it is a beautiful place full of history.

[@feralLove]

That was righteous of Clark Gable to have had his friends back like that!! And Hattie's answer to the question was brilliant! I don't understand one race of People treating another race as inferior at all. 💔😢 Margaret was honoring the oral tradition and her ancesters by writing that book. If you put politics aside I feel it really is a story bout triumph of the human spirit over adversity and we can all relate to that no matter what side your on. Haha love how she hid written chapters from prying eyes!! 😁

[@lisafrombama2517]

Jordan, you gave again touched my heart by giving us the Margaret Mitchell museum! THE FRONT DOOR! Oh My Gosh! I didn't make it there but THANK YOU for doing it for me! I am still planning my trip to that museum and going to buy Peter's books as well. Isn't he a great story teller? I could listen to him for days. I hate it for him because he fought SO hard to save Tara all for naught. Again, I love ALL your videos. I too have a Chihuahua so you KNOW I love Jah and am subed to his channel as well. Keep up the great work! I appuald you! ❤🙏 Lisa(Melissa) from Bama transplanted from Atlanta

[@TuesdayAfternoon]

Just the perfect addition to the Gone with the Wind series. Loved touring her apartment, seeing the desk where she wrote and the story of the yellow envelopes. What a great Gone with the Wind Museum, full of amazing pictures, articles, and the actual portrait of Scarlet from the movie. Sad that the door couldn’t remain there, but maybe it will find an even better location. Seeing all these places is such a gift. I’ve read many accounts that questioned her death. It wouldn’t surprise me if she was pushed. Such a great tribute to Gone with the Wind and Margaret Mitchell. Thank you so much Jordan. You make a very dashing Rhett Butler. Awesome vlog!

[@blossom1643]

Thanks for sharing a really cool video! Gone With The Wind IS a Classic whether people like it or not. It’s Really too bad they are tearin down her house! But it figures in this crazy world. Life down here Was what it Was & it will never change by Trying to destroy beautiful old landmarks. ✌️

[@paulabradley5862]

Thank you for this tour! It's so interesting

[@marybarrett47]

the book could have come only from the mind of margaret mitchell and her life experiences - being able to lasso those thoughts and blend with imagination is an incredible feat

[@adriannigro3473]

Perfect vlog Jordan loved every minute gone with the wind such a classic thank you kindly

[@VENUS.SE7EN]

Great video! Gone With the Wind is one of my favorites.

To say I’ve learned a lot from this epic road trip would be a huge understatement......as usual awesome vlog. Thank you.

[@choward1115]

Excellent vlog today Jordan!! I love anything about GWTW. One of my mom’s favorite movies!! Gee I was just hanging on your every word. Thanks for your time and effort putting today’s vlog together for us. I appreciate it, take care🌺🌹🌼🌸🌻🌻🙋🏻‍♀️

[@valeriefelitto6336]

Great vlog, very concise and informative.

[@leannbrooks218]

This was very interesting. Thankyou

[@HipHamlets]

Great story Jordan. I worked across the street from the house from 1995 to 1996. One thing I’m sure the tour did not mention, was the house was almost burned down around 1995. I arrived to work one morning and the roof was smoldering and there was tons of fire trucks, it was almost completing burned out but the walls. We never did hear exactly what happened. Was it arson or a construction accident? Rumors were it was arson. There was a lot of under ground political activity brewing and anti~GWTW at that time. Also there used to be a small bronze sign in the sidewalk near 13th and PTree showing the spot she was killed. It might be gone now.

[@sabrinamichellehayeshayes]

I live on the property thAt mArgrett Mitchell’s grandparents owned . We have an old slave graveyard of the help from twelve oaks

[@TheDragonflyCottage]

Love it! Thank you

Wonderful vlog as always

[@kathleenhorner9296]

I must say you did a wonderful job on this tour. We travel to Atlanta a good bit and now I am inspired to take the to5ur next time we go down there. Always a gas going back and watching your old videos.

[@lbjordan9083]

The period furniture reminded me of the old farm & ranch houses of my cousins and grandma that they still all had when I was a little girl in eastern Oregon. They even still had crank phones.

[@blazefairchild465]

Wow , I learned so much in this vlog. I have read the book & seen this movie so many times ,one of my all time favorite s. I never realized MMM was so tiny & was so young when she was killed.

[@seegreen3268]

Good video Love gone with the wind

Another Heck Of A Great Vlog Jordan From Beginning To The End!! Learn Somethin New Everyday! Just Wish I Had A Memory Like You..This Was A Darn Good An Long Movie As Best As I Can Remember.

[@conniepresley7601]

What a history lesson very good!! We had to write a paper on her in school one time !! Keep up the good work.

[@pamelaorr3809]

Really enjoyed this. Very informative.

[@skyhawk182]

We have relatives in Georgia and have been there numerous times and every time we tried to get to the museum something got in the way, thanks for getting us there at least vicariously, very nice visit. We WILL get there! Thanks a bunch! 😎

[@harolynallison4105]

This is one of my favorite topic and I have been following your presentation on this wonderful movie. You are so knowledgeable for a young man. Very well done. Hug your nice little dog for me.

[@conniefeltman3189]

Sure did! Loved it! Thank You!🌹

[@lauriealexander5857]

Excellent job!!!!❤❤❤❤

[@dollywilson3395]

Wonderful vlog, Jordan. It's a great addition to the others you've done on this. I loved seeing her apartment and all of the period pieces. That's how it was in Elvis' Lauderdale Courts apartment, too...just period pieces, but it helps you to see how they lived at that time. I enjoyed this very much. Thank you.

[@CottageCupcake]

Wow... again what accomplishments people back in the day mate at such a young age. Again Jordan well done🎯 from an Ohioan

[@daviddorward7684]

Great vlog which I stumbled upon this wintry Toronto February morning in 2021. Thank you, very informative for a book/film I have always loved.

[@themiccrazy]

Another great vlog!

[@darlenehenry1742]

Best book and movie ever 📽📚 Margaret and I share the same birthday 🎂 ❤

[@ellennewth6305]

Excellent vlog, Jordan! As a writer myself, I have tremendous admiration for this brilliantly talented woman. You did a great job giving us a peek into her life. Sadly, we can only wonder what unwritten stories died with her.

[@LaurenceDay-d2p]

Accoding to MM's bio, THE ROAD TO TARA, the typewriter she used was a Remington, and is displayed at the Atlanta library.

[@nancyabercrombie5052]

I am totally enjoying all of this history. Some things I've never heard before and I was born in Atlanta.😊

[@mariemorgan7759]

One of my favorite books,thanks for the tour! Both Margret Mitchell and Vivian Leigh were Scorpios.

[@scclif]

Wow I have loved these last series of vlogs through your trip down south . If I missed mentioning on any one of them, great job ! Also you were so cute with your face in that cut out of Rhett Butler haha.

[@scclif]

3 years later and I've just watched this series again. What a treasure and so happy that you documented this Jordan. I read the book at 19 years old after having heard about it all my life being a southern girl. I remember my Mom talked about how she'd seen the movie at the Alabama Theater in Birmingham. A special memory for her as it is such a beautiful theater. My experience wasn't so Grand but I was happy to get to see it on the big screen anyway.🦁😎👍

[@sandraplonka5225]

Jordan this was awesome. And mom too.

[@cindycinnamon1965]

Fantastic vlog! I have always wanted to go, but my husband has no interest in it. I remember one time when we went to the Atlanta History Center, we got got free passes to go see the house and he still didn't want to go. So thank you for the tour! Midtown is going through a lot of changes as you saw. And you were lucky to have visited when you did because the temps here now have been in the 90's. Hope you were able to make your way through Buckhead while you were here.

[@jeffreyoldham55]

I lived & worked in Atlanta during the Olympics, and used to pass Margret Mitchell's house frequently. Unfortunately, I never got the opportunity to visit. Thanks for another interesting & informative vlog, Jordan.

Yay! I was hoping you would go to her apartment! It was really small! I already have her book on her letters for GWTW on my Amazon wish list and own the dvd , so it looks like I will have to get GWTW book also! Loved all the back history! Thanks Jordan!

[@janadeubner9883]
