The making of Scarlett O'Hara

Article Abstract:

Very little was known about the life of Margaret Mitchell, the author of 'Gone with the Wind,' until recently, even though it is now 60 years since the book was published. It was traditionally believed, for example, that she held racist views, but it has recently been discovered that she funded the education of at least 20 black Atlanta medical students. It is now becoming more widely accepted that she was a strong individualist with great passion and energy.
