Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Are you curious to learn what happened after the US Civil War? Then dive into the captivating history of the Reconstruction Era The US Civil War brought about a lot of change. The nation not only had to figure out how to become united once again, but it also had to figure out how to integrate the newly freed slaves into society. In addition, the country had to figure out how to recover from the war, which devastated the South and took many lives on both sides.President Abraham Lincoln favored a less punitive plan for reinstating the Confederate states back into the Union. Unlike other Republicans at the time, he did not think of these states as ever having left the Union. However, his plan never came to fruition. His assassination left the Reconstruction efforts in the hands of Andrew Johnson, a Democrat. Johnson wanted to make things easier for his fellow Democrats in the South. Knowing this, the Radical Republicans in Congress passed their own laws, overrode Johnson's vetoes, and eventually impeached him. Their plan for the South was punitive and harsh, as they expected total loyalty from any state wishing to rejoin the Union.It is partially due to these harsh measures that the South enacted the Black Codes, which were harsh laws that stripped away civil liberties for African Americans. The racial tension and hostile atmosphere in the South, which were directed toward both blacks and sympathetic whites, gave birth to the Ku Klux Klan and the infamous Jim Crow laws. Congress attempted to counter these moves with the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments, but these were never utilized in the way they had imagined.In this book, you will learn about the significant players and laws. You will read about the carpetbaggers and scallywags who tried to make things better for blacks in the South while also seeking their own fortune. And perhaps most importantly, you will discover what happened to the freed slaves and how they found themselves living in a nation that promoted separate but equal legislation.Here is a tiny fraction of what you will discover in this book: The Civil WarLincoln's VisionThe Wade-Davis Bill and the Radical RepublicansThe Thirteenth AmendmentPresidential ReconstructionThe Civil Rights Act of 1866The Radical ReconstructionCarpetbaggers and Scallywags, 1867The Fourteenth Amendment, 1868The Impeachment of Andrew Johnson, 1868The Fifteenth Amendment, 1870The Ku Klux Klan Act, 1871The Civil Rights Act of 1875The Compromise of 1877The Official End of the ReconstructionAfter the ReconstructionPlessy v.
