Abstract:
The article looks at the post-Civil War Ku Klux Klan organization in North Carolina. The author offers a revisionist account of Klan activities between 1869 and 1870 specifically in the Piedmont area where the Klan was more concentrated and organized. Rather than previous assessments of the Klan as an organization which restored order in a time of chaos, the author looks at the terroristic aspect of Klan activities and the organization's impact on political affairs.
