A book that achieves large sales. Many
newspapers print bestseller charts, and
potential bestsellers are often heavily
promoted by publishers. The first bestseller
is often said to have been Margaret
Mitchell's novel Gone with the Wind 1936. In
the UK the paperback with the highest sales
in the 1980s was The Secret Diary of Adrian
Mole Aged 13 3/4 by Sue Townsend (over 3
million copies sold). The Bible has sold more
copies than any other book over time.
