Scarlett OHara was not beautiful， but men seldom realized it when caught by hercharm as the Tarleton twins were. In her face were too sharply blended the delicatefeatures of her mother, a Coast aristocrat of French descent, and the heavy ones ofher florid Irish father. But it was an arresting face, pointed of chin; square of jaw.Her eyes were pale green without a touch of hazel, starred with bristly black lashesand slightly tilted at the ends. Above them, her thick black brows slanted upward,cutting a startling oblique line in her magnoliawhite skin that skin so prized bySouthern women and so carefully guarded with bonnets, veils and mittens againsthot Georgia suns.Seated with Smart and Brent Tarleton in the cool shade of the porch of Tara, herfathers plantation, that bright April afternoon of 1861, she made a pretty picture.Her new green floweredmuslin dress spread its twelve yards of billowing materialover her hoops and exactly matched the flatheeled green morocco slippers herfather had recently brought her from Atlanta. The dress set off to perfection theseventeeninch waist, the smallest in three counties, and the tightly fitting basqueshowed breasts well matured for her sixteen years. But for all the modesty of herspreading skirts, the demureness of hair netted smoothly into a chignon and thequietness of small white hands folded in her lap, her true self was poorly concealed.The green eyes in the carefully sweet face were turbulent, willful, lusty with life,distinctly at variance with her decorous demeanor. Her manners had been imposedupon her by her mothers gentle admonitions and the sterner discipline of hermammy; her eyes were her own.On either side of her, the twins lounged easily in their chairs, squinting at thesunlight through tall mintgarnished glasses as they laughed and talked, their longlegs, booted to the knee and thick with saddle muscles, crossed negligently.Nineteen years old, six feet two inches tall, long of bone and hard of muscle, withsunburned faces and deep auburn hair, their eyes merry and arrogant, their bodiesclothed in identical blue coats and mustardcolored breeches, they were as muchalike as two bolls of cotton.
