Its arguments must be strongly considered by those moving further toward any 'new historical appraisal' of the KKK.\" Journal of Interdisciplinary History \"This is an important historical work. Although this study of the Klan does not justify a rush to reinterpret regional or national experiences, it does establish that the Klan experience varied with the conditions and, therefore, tends to defy one single description. Students, scholars, and others interested in twentieth-century American history will definitely want to read this work.\" Kenneth R.
