“Lutholtz is especially successful in recreating the atmosphere of Indiana in the 1920s and in tracing the rise of Stephenson’s enormous political power.”
Publishers Weekly“A rich and powerful history of a dark chapter, an intriguing view through the lens of time which provides a haunting illumination of the politics of hate. Lutholtz plumbs the depth of the sinister side of the politics of personal power and the tyrannies of movements of convenience. A chilling period examined in fascinating detail.”
“More than just a masterful retelling of the most dramatic trial in Indiana history, this is a riveting narrative of the Indiana Klan during the 1920s. Lutholtz is a diligent researcher and a skillful writer, and his study of one of the state’s most notorious and elusive men is an outstanding achievement. A thorough study of Stephenson and his evil genius has been long overdue. Lutholtz’s book is a triumph of journalistic investigative reporting that is also grounded in the best academic materials on the subject. The story of the Klan and its two-faced leader reads like a murder mystery that, despite most readers knowing the outcome, will keep their interest and the pages turning. Grand Dragon will take its place on the short list of basic books to read for information about the Ku Klux Klan in Indiana in the 1920s”
“This intriguing, informative study is a welcome addition to historical scholarship. Judiciously peeling away layer upon layer of deception and myth, Lutholtz has provided some fascinating insights into Indiana political corruption and the most celebrated criminal trial in Hoosier history. . . . Grand Dragon merits a place in every serious American academic and public library.”
