Struggle for Mastery: Disfranchisement in the South, 1888-1908 [Book Review]

Abstract

In substance and methodology, this book represents a retreat to an earlier era. Perman refuses to state his or others' hypotheses clearly, or he qualifies them out of existence, repeatedly contradicts himself, arranges information to avoid confronting inconvenient facts, eschews quantitative or explicit qualitative tests, and undermines generalizations by exaggerating small differences and glossing over large ones.
