Books of interest on special phases of reconstruction are not numerous, but among those deserving mention are Paul S. Pierce's "The Freedmen's Bureau" (1904), D. M. DeWitt's "The Impeachment and Trial of Andrew Johnson" (1903), and Paul L. Haworth's "The Hayes-Tilden Disputed Presidential Election of 1876" (1906), each of which is a thorough study of its field. J. C. Lester and D. L. Wilson's "Ku Klux Klan" (1905) and M. L. Avary's "Dixie After the War" (1906) contribute much to a fair understanding of the feeling of the whites after the Civil War; and Gideon Welles, "Diary", 3 vols. (1911), is a mine of information from a conservative cabinet officer's point of view.
For the politician's point of view one may go to James G. Blaine's "Twenty Years of Congress", 2 vols. (1884, 1886) and Samuel S. c.o.x's "Three Decades of Federal Legislation" (1885). Good biographies are James A. Woodburn's "The Life of Thaddeus Stevens" (1913), Moorfield Storey's "Charles Sumner" (1900), C. F. Adams's "Charles Francis Adams" (1900). Less satisfactory because more partisan is Edward Stanwood's "James Gillespie Blaine" (1906). There are no adequate biographies of the Democratic and Southern leaders.
The official doc.u.ments are found conveniently arranged in William McDonald's "Select Statutes", 1861-1898 (1903), and also with other material in Walter L. Fleming's "Doc.u.mentary History of Reconstruction", 2 vols. (1906, 1907). The general reader is usually repelled by the collections known as "Public Doc.u.ments". The valuable "Ku Klux Trials" (1872) is, however, separately printed and to be found in most good libraries. By a judicious use of the indispensable "Tables and Index to Public Doc.u.ments," one can find much vividly interesting material in connection with contested election cases and reports of congressional investigations into conditions in the South.
