The Brothers' War by John Calvin Reed.
Written to help Christians come to a clearer understanding of and appreciation for 'the gospel of the grace of God,' drawing on the legacy of John Calvin. --from publisher description
'The Brothers' War' is a historical book that seeks to explain the rise of the Ku Klux Klan and promote white supremacist views. Despite containing outdated and unacceptable arguments by today's standards, the book provides a valuable starting point for understanding the ongoing prevalence of white supremacist organizations. The author attempts to justify the rise of the Ku Klux Klan, a notorious white supremacist organization in American history, by promoting the idea of racial superiority and white supremacy. The book's arguments are reflective of the time period in which it was written. Despite its shortcomings, The Brothers' War provides a useful historical perspective on the evolution of white supremacist ideology. It allows readers to delve into the mindset and motivations of white supremacist organizations and how they justified their beliefs. It is a valuable resource for researchers and scholars seeking to understand the roots and continued existence of white supremacist organizations in the modern era.
"As we approach the occasion of the 500th anniversary of John Calvin's birth, and eagerly anticipate the production of the many excellent historical and theological works that will mark the first half-millennium of Reformed Christianity, this set of essays from the beginning of the 20th century may serve both to edify us and to whet our appetites for more. One will find giants among the contributors (from Reed to Johnson to Orr to Warfield to D'Aubigne), and topics of abiding interest." - Dr. Ligon Duncan
