Fully authorized by the Margaret Mitchell estate, "Rhett Butler's People" is the astonishing and long-awaited novel that parallels the Great American Novel, "Gone With The Wind." Twelve years in the making, the publication of "Rhett Butler's People" marks a major and historic cultural event.
Through the storytelling mastery of award-winning writer Donald McCaig, the life and times of the dashing Rhett Butler unfolds. Through Rhett's eyes we meet the people who shaped his larger than life personality as it sprang from Margaret Mitchell's unforgettable pages: Langston Butler, Rhett's unyielding father; Rosemary his steadfast sister; Tunis Bonneau, Rhett's best friend and a onetime slave; Belle Watling, the woman for whom Rhett cared long before he met Scarlett O'Hara at Twelve Oaks Plantation, on the fateful eve of the Civil War.
Of course there is Scarlett. Katie Scarlett O'Hara, the headstrong, passionate woman whose life is inextricably entwined with Rhett's: more like him than she cares to admit; more in love with him than she'll ever know
Brought to vivid and authentic life by the hand of a master, "Rhett Butler's People" fulfills the dreams of those whose imaginations have been indelibly marked by "Gone With The Wind.""

Rhett Butler
"Renegade. Outcast. Rebel. Lover. Gambler. Southerner. A mystery..."
Until now.
"Rhett Butler's People"""fulfills the dreams of those whose imaginations have been indelibly marked by America's greatest novel," Gone With The Wind." Here you'll meet Rhett as a boy, a free spirit who loved the marshes and tidewaters of the Low Country, and learn of the ruthlessness of Rhett's father, whose desire for control resulted in unspeakable. Through Rhett's eyes, you'll encounter those who shaped him in other ways: the Overseer's daughter, Belle Watling; Rosemary, Rhett's brave and determined sister; Tunis Bonneau, the son of freed slaves who understood the young Rhett like no one else; and Jack Ravanel, whose name became inextricably linked to heartbreak. And then there's Katie Scarlett O'Hara herself--the headstrong, passionate woman whose life is inextricably entwined with Rhett's: more like him than she cares to admit; more in love with him than either of them will ever know...
"Get inside Rhett's head as he meets and courts Scarlett in one of the most famous love affairs of all time..."--"The New York Times"
