  • Résumé

  • Fergus Bordewich is one of the premier historians currently living, and his prior seminal works include Congress at War: How Republican Reformers Fought the Civil War, Defied Lincoln, Ended Slavery, and Remade America; Bound For Canaan: The Underground Railroad and The First Congress: How James Madison, George Washington, and a Group of Extraordinary Men Invented the Government. His new book, Klan War: Ulysses S. Grant and the Battle to Save Reconstruction may be his most important book yet. In this book, Bordewich destroys the self-serving shibboleths about Reconstruction that have been offered by Lost Cause historians and describes, in gripping detail, the war that had been waged by Confederates againstAfrican-Americans and southern Republicans after the Civil War.

    What we cover –

    • The origins of the Klan.
    • Ulysses Grant and his eventual decision to wage war against the Klan.
    • The numerous barbarous atrocities waged against African Americans in order to nullify the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments.
    • The eventual failure to enforce Reconstruction and the results that ensued.
