She grew up in Atlanta, surrounded by aunts and great-aunts who remembered the war and told her all their stories.
When it came to writing 'Gone with the Wind', she worked out the characters and more-or-less delivered all the anecdotes to the publisher, who skilfully sorted them into a coherent novel.

The reconstruction
Margaret J. Mitchell is best known for writing the novel "Gone with the Wind," published in 1936. The novel follows the experiences of a young girl during the American Civil War and Reconstruction era. "Gone with the Wind" received critical acclaim and won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1937.
Margaret Mitchell wrote "Gone With The Wind" which was published in the mid 1930s, from which the movie of the same name was made in 1939. She lived all her life in Georgia, and grew up in the late 1800s, surrounded by all those women still wearing black, for loved ones lost in the war. Her portrayal of the people, and their beliefs and attitudes, of the time of the Civil War and the years after is probably as accurate a look as we are able to get from our viewpoint today. As is often the case you probably obtain a better evocation of the people from the book than you do from the movie.
Scarlett O'Hara is the main character in the novel "Gone with the Wind" by Margaret Mitchell. She is a headstrong and complex Southern belle who experiences love, loss, and resilience during the American Civil War and Reconstruction era. Scarlett is both admired and criticized for her strong-willed personality and her determination to survive and thrive in the face of adversity.
No, "Gone with the Wind" is a work of historical fiction written by Margaret Mitchell. It is set during the American Civil War and Reconstruction era, but the characters and events are fictional.
