Uncle Tom's Cabin: With original illustrations

Harriet Stowe
Mark PitcavageMark Pitcavage

Mitchell also was a major propagator of Lost Cause myths, of course. In many ways, she is a sort of neo-Confederate literary response designed to bury the harsh portrayal of slavery depicted by Harriet Beecher Stowe in Uncle Tom's Cabin.

Gone with the Wind

Margaret Mitchell
Mark PitcavageMark Pitcavage

Margaret Mitchell did considerable research for Gone with the Wind, essentially creating a fictional popularization of the racist Dunning School interpretation of Reconstruction that perfectly complemented Claude Bowers' lurid nonfictional popularization of the same. https://t.co/oc3BwH3MHS
