Reconstruction and the New South, 1865-1913
THE THIRD INSTALLMENT of Dr. Clyde N. Wilson's SOUTHERN READER'S GUIDES distills more than a half century of scholarship into identifying and describing 50 essential books on the topic of the Reconstruction (1865-1876) and the New South (1877-1913). Dr. Wilson, Emeritus Distinguished Professor of History of the University of South Carolina, was editor of the highly-praised Papers of John C. Calhoun and is the author or editor of more than 20 other books, and over 700 articles, essays, and reviews in a variety of books and journals, scholarly and popular. He is considered by many to be the greatest living historian of the South. If you want to understand Reconstruction and the New South without wasting your time on 3rd string authors and the p.c. infected pseudo-history coming out of the modern academy, there is no greater guide than Dr. Wilson. _________________ "I really enjoyed this! Wilson is a great guide to this literature. Reading this is like going to a bookstore with a wonderfully informed, witty old friend. Just be careful!

Annals of the Stupid Party
IN THIS INSTALLMENT OF THE WILSON FILES, we turn our attention to Dr. Clyde Wilson's writings on the "Grand Old Party." For several decades Wilson has been prolifically combating the widespread delusion "that the Republicans represent a conservative bulwark against leftist revolution." "In its entire history of a century and a half," Wilson writes, "the Republican Party has never conserved anything. It has never had as a goal the intention of conserving anything worthwhile." Republican leaders have not only failed their voters; they have actively swindled them.As the author conclusively shows, today the party is not a political party at all. It is an electioneering machine to promote its lea...
