How to get the value of an input field using ReactJS?

I have the following React component:

export default class MyComponent extends React.Component {

    onSubmit(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        var title = this.title;
        console.log(title);
    }

    render(){
        return (
            ...
            <form className="form-horizontal">
                ...
                <input type="text" className="form-control" ref={(c) => this.title = c} name="title" />
                ...
            </form>
            ...
            <button type="button" onClick={this.onSubmit} className="btn">Save</button>
            ...
        );
    }

};

The console is giving me undefined – any ideas what’s wrong with this code?
