The only authentic history of the Ku Klux Klan, this was written by Susan Lawrence Davis, who knew the original founders of the KKK. She traveled far and wide to interview the remaining players in the drama, eventually publishing her book in 1924. No other account of the KKK is as complete or accurate as this history of the Ku Klux Klan that existed from 1865 until its dissolution by General Nathan Bedford Forrest in 1877.

There are few organizations that have been more misrepresented than the Ku Klux Klan. This book is the history of the Ku Klux Klan told by the Ku Klux Klan. Excellent and forgotten books, articles, interviews, manuals and rituals have been compiled and tell a tale that is in total contrast to that which is thought today. In its pages we learn of the Jewish agent, John Wilkes Booth. We read of the Gunfighters, Quantrill's Guerrillas, and groups like the Knights of the Golden Circle, a Christmas Eve in Pulaski, Tennessee and the Confederate officers who, inspired by the Holy Vehm, triumphed over the reconstruction. Phase two of the early 1900's began with the sensational story of "The Klansman" ("Birth of a Nation") and the anti-semitic Knights of Mary Phagan, which saw the growth of the "fraternal" Klan that was more than ten million strong and even had Presidents as members. It is shown how during WWII the Klan was among the last to still openly oppose Jewish interests and what it cost them. The Klansmen who rose against the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960's would pay an even heavier price. The Spirit of the Knight Rider came full circle when He rode with the Bruders Schweigen in the 1980's. There is an invisible spirit passed on like an invisible torch. A long line of Heroes marching under the same banner. It is Spiritual. In this one of a kind book, the reader will experience the truer and deeper significance of the heroism and transformations that have taken place throughout the history of the Ku Klux Klan. A true and concise history of the Ku Klux Klan.

An urgent examination into the revived Klan of the 1920s becomes “required reading” for our time (New York Times Book Review). Extraordinary national acclaim accompanied the publication of award-winning historian Linda Gordon’s disturbing and markedly timely history of the reassembled Ku Klux Klan of the 1920s. Dramatically challenging our preconceptions of the hooded Klansmen responsible for establishing a Jim Crow racial hierarchy in the 1870s South, this “second Klan” spread in states principally above the Mason-Dixon line by courting xenophobic fears surrounding the flood of immigrant “hordes” landing on American shores. “Part cautionary tale, part expose” (Washington Post), The Second Coming of the KKK “illuminates the surprising scope of the movement” (The New Yorker); the Klan attracted four-to-six-million members through secret rituals, manufactured news stories, and mass “Klonvocations” prior to its collapse in 1926—but not before its potent ideology of intolerance became part and parcel of the American tradition. A “must-read” (Salon) for anyone looking to understand the current moment, The Second Coming of the KKK offers “chilling comparisons to the present day” (New York Review of Books).

The first comprehensive examination of the nineteenth-century Ku Klux Klan since the 1970s, Ku-Klux pinpoints the group's rise with startling acuity. Historians have traced the origins of the Klan to Pulaski, Tennessee, in 1866, but the details behind the group's emergence have long remained shadowy. By parsing the earliest descriptions of the Klan, Elaine Frantz Parsons reveals that it was only as reports of the Tennessee Klan's mysterious and menacing activities began circulating in northern newspapers that whites enthusiastically formed their own Klan groups throughout the South. The spread of the Klan was thus intimately connected with the politics and mass media of the North. Shedding new light on the ideas that motivated the Klan, Parsons explores Klansmen's appropriation of images and language from northern urban forms such as minstrelsy, burlesque, and business culture. While the Klan sought to retain the prewar racial order, the figure of the Ku-Klux became a joint creation of northern popular cultural entrepreneurs and southern whites seeking, perversely and violently, to modernize the South. Innovative and packed with fresh insight, Parsons' book offers the definitive account of the rise of the Ku Klux Klan during Reconstruction.
