The author, Margaret Mitchell, felt that the South was wrongly portrayed in the histories books. She wrote "Gone with the Wind" in order to offer up a different image of the South. She wanted people to see how the Southerners felt about the events, and how they saw everything as it happened. She wanted it to be a sort of defence for the South, and also to remember a time that she saw as a more civilized, and chivalrous.
