Book Description
This book contains a rapidly moving narrative and interpretive survey of the principal events and movements in the history of Alabama, from the surrender of its troops to the Northern forces until the redemption of the state from Republican domination in the election of Governor Houston. The author tells this story of the movement by which the carpetbagger, the scalawag, and the Negro united with the Republican party in a development called Reconstruction to dominate Alabama from 1865-1874.
