In the Wake of Slavery: Civil War, Civil Rights, and the Reconstruction of Southern Law Ranney, Joseph A.

The Civil War devastated the South, and the end of slavery turned Southern society upside down. How did the South regain social, economic, and political stability in the wake of emancipation and wartime destruction, and how did the South come together with its former enemies in the North? Why did the South not slip back into chaos? This book holds the keys to the answers to these tantalizing questions.
