Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Documentary History of Reconstruction, Vol. 1: Political, Military, Social, Religious, Educational Industrial, 1865 to the Present Time The purpose of this work is to make more easily accessible to the student and to the general reader some of the original sources relating to the Reconstruction period. The documents reproduced will assist to an understanding of the peculiar conditions - social, political and economic - that prevailed in the Southern states during the Reconstruction. The first volume consists of selections illustrative of the condition of the South after the war, the problems to be solved and the attempts of the President and Congress to solve them, ending with the readmission of the late Confederate States to the Union. The second volume will illustrate the working out in the Southern states of the Congressional plan of Reconstruction, and the adjustments that followed later. The documents presented are principally laws, state and federal, official reports, and political platforms; accounts of Northern men and foreigners living or traveling in the South; accounts of Southerners, white and black, ex-Confederates and Unionists, Conservatives and Radicals. With the exception of the laws and political documents the material used consists mainly of accounts by persons who had first hand acquaintance with conditions in the South. Owing to the necessity for condensation I have had to leave unused five-sixths of the material gathered while all that has been included has been subjected to a vigorous pruning of all unessential matter. Some congressional debates on matters of theory or policy are included, but I have been obliged reluctantly to omit most of the documents illustrative of those important facts in Reconstruction - viz., the development of public sentiment in the North before 1868 and the reaction that came later.
