5.0 out of 5 stars
Simply the best book on the KKK in Florida., August 13, 2009
This review is from: The Invisible Empire: The Ku Klux Klan in Florida (Florida History and Culture) (Hardcover)
Simply the best book on the KKK in Florida. To the best of my knowledge the only book that focuses primarily on Florida.
Another excellent book, regarding the struggle for civil rights in Tallahassee, including the bus boycott, the third bus boycott in the South, and arguably the most succesful, is "The Pain and the Promise", by Glenda Alice Rabby -- available at Amazon too.
I am conducting research and investigation regarding the KKK in the Tallahassee, Florida area. At auction was a lot of original documents from the Tallahassee KKK Lucky 13 Club from 1949 to 1955, including names, addresses, secret numbers, etc.
At the Forums section of the Tallahassee Democrat newspaper's website is a thread regarding the Tallahassee KKK under the National/International section with the title of "The Ku Klux Klan in Tallahassee area from 1949 to 1955 ...."
If you have information that could assist my research and investigations, please mail to:
