The New South Investigated is a book written by David Augustus Straker in 1888 that offers a comprehensive analysis of the social, political, and economic conditions of the American South during the post-Civil War era. The author examines the impact of the Reconstruction period on the region, including the rise of the Ku Klux Klan and the imposition of Jim Crow laws that institutionalized segregation and discrimination against African Americans. Straker also explores the economic changes that occurred in the South during this time, such as the growth of the textile industry and the rise of sharecropping. He analyzes the role of religion, education, and the media in shaping Southern culture and politics. The book provides a detailed and critical account of the challenges facing the New South and offers insights into the complex and often contradictory forces that shaped this period of 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.
