This is a comprehensive examination of the use of violence by
conservative southerners in the post-Civil War South to subvert
Federal Reconstruction policies, overthrow Republican state
governments, restore Democratic power, and reestablish white racial
hegemony. Historians have often stressed the limited and even
conservative nature of Federal policy in the Reconstruction South.
However, George C. Rable argues, white southerners saw the intent
and the results of that policy as revolutionary. Violence therefore
became a counterrevolutionary instrument, placing the South in a
pattern familiar to students of world revolution.
