This ebook is complete with illustrations, linked footnotes, linked Index and linked Table of Content making navigation quicker and easier.
Ku Klux Klan, Its Origin, Growth and Disbandment was authored by J. C. Lester and D. L. Wilson with Introduction and Notes by Walter L. Fleming, PH. D. Professor of History in West Virginia University; Author of "Civil War and Reconstruction in Alabama."
Twenty-one years ago there was privately printed in Nashville, Tennessee, a little book by J. C. Lester and D. L. Wilson, that purported to be an account, from inside information, of the great secret order of Reconstruction days, known to the public as Ku Klux Klan. It attracted little notice then; and since that time it has not been given the attention it deserved as a historical document. At the time of writing, sectional feeling was still inflamed; the Northern people were not ready to hear anything favorable about the Ku Klux Klan, which they considered a band of outlaws and murderers; and the Southern people were not desirous of being reminded of the dreadful Reconstruction period. Many of the members of the Klan who had been hunted for their lives, and who were still technically outlawed, were unwilling to make known their connection with the order and some even considered their oaths still binding.
