There are many biographies of Vivien Leigh, the legend, who at age twenty-five crossed the Atlantic and walked off with the coveted role of Scarlett O�Hara in Gone with the Wind. This biography by Hugo Vickers, written in 1988 and updated and re-released in 2008, tells the story of Vivien Leigh, the woman. Examining the previously uncovered story of Vivien Leigh�s family, Vickers gives the first clear account of the atmosphere in which Vivien was raised. He covers her marriage to Leigh Holman and their abiding friendship, and then her marriage to Laurence Oliver, made the more difficult by her recurring bouts of tuberculosis and manic depression. In this loving account, Leigh emerges as a spirited and courageous woman, brave to the end.
