First published in 1951, Reunion and Reaction quickly became a classic. Its entirely new interpretation was a revision of previous attitudes toward the Reconstruction period, the history of the Republican party, and the realignment of forces that fought the Civil War. This important work is reissued with a new introduction by the author.
`An illuminating and exciting book.' New York Times `The book will indubitably cause controversy, for many of its implications are germane today, but Professor Woodward seems to have constructed an unassailable case. An important book, and a work of live scholarship.' The New Yorker
