True story of why the klan was established !!

Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2021

The real story of why the Klan was established. It protected all people who could not protect themselves including black southerners. Years later under new leaders the Klan would change its identity into acts of violence and Jim Crow. The origin of the klan was about bringing peace to the south and protecting anyone who couldn’t protect themselves. Don’t let the PC media and woke culture change history into their narrative.....

Here we find a fairly objective discussion of the growth and history of the Klan. It did not start out as brutal but rather a reaction to brutality. But as with so many groups in a defensive mode, the movement because discredited nearly everywhere because of over reaching and over reacting to a situation that originally gave birth to the group.

It is not a very good book. If you are interested n the KKK , I suggest you skip this book, it is good if you are only interested in how the KKK was organized.

You hear so much misinformation about the Klan...this book gives you history of the times, beginning of the Klan, what it hoped to achieve, and why it was shut down. Honorable men in tough times coming together to protect them selves and their neighbors. Apparently there were three KKK groups formed over time and the ruthlessness of the 2nd and 3rd groups over shadow the KKK of 1865-1869 KKK. This book showed the organization of the KKK and it was much more organized than I thought. Many of the horror stories of the KKK were groups of men dressed as KKK members but were not members. The horrors they inflcted upon citizens were blamed on the Klan...and the rumors spread based on false assumptions. I am so glad I read this book and wish schools would require students to read this so they can see both sides of the story.

A fascinating albeit flawed point of view

Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2013

Verified Purchase

This book attempts to paint the Ku Klux Klan in a favorable hue. By highlighting possible motivations (as opposed to outcomes) Ku Klux Klan Its Origin, Growth and Disbandment tries to reason with readers as to why this group was necessary for its time. It is an excellent study in organizational tactics.Notable distinction: This book lists Albert Pike,author of "Morals and Dogma", as a high ranking member.
