The Leopard's Spots: A Romance of the White Man's Burden 1865-1900Doubleday, Page & Company, 1903 - Всего страниц: 465 Dixon offers an account of Reconstruction in which he portrays a Reconstruction leader (and former slave driver), Northern carpetbaggers, and emancipated slaves as the villains; Ku Klux Klan members are anti-heroes.
