Excerpt from Some Historical Errors of James Ford Rhodes
Those who will do me the honor of reading these chapters, and have read, or may hereafter read, the Facts of Reconstruction, will not fail to see the fact brought out that, shortly after the Democratic victories in the state and Con gressional elections of 1874, a propaganda was put on foot to deceive and mislead the public with reference to the political situation at the South, with a view to shaping and educating pub lic opinion so as to bring about acquiescence in, and endorsement of, illegal and questionable election methods in that section. The public was to be taught to believe that such methods were necessary to prevent Negro domination. The true purpose was not in the interest of white supremacy, but in the perpetuation of the local oligarchies which had been brought into existence through the adoption and enforcement of methods which Mr. Rhodes is pleased to term regret table. But the real facts are to be carefully concealed and never publicly revealed.

Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book critiques the historical record of the Reconstruction era as documented by James Ford Rhodes, arguing that his account is not only inaccurate and unreliable but also biased, partisan, and prejudiced. Focusing heavily on the question of Southern white Republicans, the author takes issue with Rhodes' contention that their drift away from the party was solely motivated by a desire to suppress the black vote, instead attributing it to a variety of factors, including social ostracism, intimidation, and a genuine desire for reconciliation. The book also challenges Rhodes' depiction of the newly enfranchised black voters as being easily manipulated and incapable of making independent political decisions. The author contends that they were, in fact, highly motivated to participate in the political process and that their votes were not simply pawns in the hands of unscrupulous white politicians. Overall, the book offers a more nuanced and balanced view of the Reconstruction era, arguing that it was a complex and challenging time in American history that cannot be adequately understood through the lens of a single, biased perspective. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
