In The Wake Of War: A Tale Of The South Under Carpetbagger Administration is a historical fiction novel written by Verne S. Pease. The book is set in the post-Civil War era and follows the story of a young man named John who returns home to his family's plantation in the South after fighting for the Confederacy. However, he finds his land and community in disarray as it is now under the control of the so-called carpetbagger administration, which is made up of Northern politicians and businessmen who have come to the South to take advantage of the chaos and rebuild the region in their own image.As John tries to navigate this new world, he becomes involved in a web of political intrigue, corruption, and violence. He is torn between his loyalty to his family and community and his desire to seek justice and restore order to the South. Along the way, he meets a cast of characters, including other former Confederates, African Americans, and Northern carpetbaggers, each with their own motivations and agendas.Through John's journey, the book explores themes of power, corruption, race, and identity, shedding light on a tumultuous period in American history. The novel is well-researched and provides a vivid portrayal of the South during Reconstruction, offering readers a glimpse into a complex and often overlooked chapter in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
