Non-Fiction | Historical
In 1906, in a bitter gubernatorial contest, Georgia
politicians played the race card and white supremacists
trumpeted a Negro crime scare. Drawing on new archival
materials, Mark Bauerlein traces the origins, development
and brutal climax of Atlanta's descent into hatred and
violence in that fateful summer. Negrophobia is history at
its best--a dramatic moment in time impeccably recreated in
a suspenseful narrative.
