The Ku-Klux Klan: A Study Of The American Mind by John Moffatt Mecklin is a comprehensive exploration of the Ku Klux Klan, a white supremacist organization that emerged in the United States in the late 19th century. Mecklin examines the origins and evolution of the Klan, tracing its roots back to the Reconstruction era and its subsequent resurgence in the 1920s. He also delves into the psychological and sociological factors that contributed to the Klan's popularity, including racism, nationalism, and xenophobia.Throughout the book, Mecklin draws on a wide range of primary and secondary sources, including Klan literature, newspaper articles, and personal interviews with Klan members. He analyzes the Klan's ideology and tactics, including its use of violence and intimidation to achieve its goals. Mecklin also explores the role of the Klan in American politics, particularly in the South, where the organization had significant influence.Overall, The Ku-Klux Klan: A Study Of The American Mind provides a nuanced and insightful examination of one of the most notorious and controversial organizations in American history. Mecklin's analysis sheds light on the complex social and psychological factors that contributed to the Klan's rise and fall, and offers valuable insights into the continuing legacy of racism and prejudice in American society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
