Reconstruction In Texas (1910)

Reconstruction in Texas is a historical book written by Charles William Ramsdell in 1910. The book is a comprehensive account of the period of reconstruction in Texas following the American Civil War. It covers the political, social, and economic aspects of the era, including the impact of the war on Texas, the role of the federal government in reconstruction, and the struggles of newly freed slaves. The book also discusses the rise of the Republican Party in Texas, the impeachment of Governor E. J. Davis, and the end of reconstruction in the state. Ramsdell's work is considered a seminal piece of scholarship on the subject of reconstruction in Texas and is still widely cited and used as a reference by historians and scholars today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

"Ramsdell, who wrote the book in 1910, had a closer vantage point in time from which to view reconstruction. A study of the work today is more than justifiable." (San Antonio Light)
