| Publisher Description: This classic report originally appeared as a series of articles in the Nation between July 8, 1865, and April 11, 1866. Dennett traveled in seven states--Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi--at the very beginning of Reconstruction. His remarkably prophetic account of the recently defeated South is a major source for the history of this transition. |
