Excerpt from The Government of the People, of the State of Alabama The growing demand for instruction in Civics was emphasized by the recommendation of the Governor of Alabama, in his special message on educational matters to the General Assembly at its last session, that "the Constitutions - State and Federal - be made a branch of study in our public schools." This little volume has been prepared as a text-book for this instruction, so far as the civil government of Alabama is concerned, and its aim is to give briefly and clearly the leading facts in the civic history of the State as well as the present workings of the governmental machinery. Like all school books, its usefulness must depend in a large measure upon the way in which it is supplemented by the work of the living teacher. To the teachers of Alabama, therefore, I commit it with the hope that they may make it effective in fostering in the youth of the State a just conception of the duties and responsibilities of citizenship. While an enumeration of all the authorities consulted would be entirely out of proportion to the little book itself, I wish to make here an acknowledgment of my indebtedness, chiefly in the first two chapters, to the works of Albert J, Pickett, Alexander B. Meek, Willis Brewer, and Hannis Taylor, and to such of the recent writings of Grace King and of John Fiske as touch upon the early history of the territory now embraced in the State of Alabama. I am also indebted to Professor W. S. Wyman's paper on "The First European Settlement in Alabama," printed in the Proceedings of the Alabama Educational Association for 1893, and to a sketch of the "Origin and Early Growth of Mobile," published in the Diamond edition of the Mobile Daily Register, January 31, 1895. My thanks are due and are hereby cordially tendered to President Richard C. Jones and Professor Benjamin F. Meek, of the University of Alabama, for helpful criticisms and for patient aid in reading the proofs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Civil War and Reconstruction in Alabama This work was begun some five years ago as a study of Recon struction in Alabama. As the field opened it seemed to me that an account of ante-bellum conditions, social, economic, and political, and of the effect of the Civil War upon ante-bellum institutions would be indispensable to any just and comprehensive treatment of the later period. Consequently I have endeavored to describe briefly the society and the institutions that went down during Civil War and Reconstruction. Internal conditions in Alabama during the war period are discussed at length; they are important, because they influenced seriously the course of Reconstruction. Through out the work I have sought to emphasize the social and economic problems in the general situation, and accordingly in addition to a sketch of the politics I have dwelt at some length upon the educa tional, religious, and industrial aspects of the period. One point in particular has been stressed throughout the whole work, viz. The fact of the segregation of the races within the state - the blacks mainly in the central counties, and the whites in the north ern and the southern counties. This division of the state into white counties and black counties has almost from the be ginning exercised the strongest influence upon the history of its people. The problems of white and black in the Black Belt are not always the problems of the whites and blacks of the white counties. It is hoped that the maps inserted in the text will assist in making clear this point. Perhaps it may be thought that undue space is devoted to the history of the negro during War and Re construction, but after all the negro, whether passive or active, was the central figure of the period.

How the 1863 elections in Perry County changed the course of Alabama's role in the Civil War In his fascinating, in-depth study, Bertis D. English analyzes why Perry county, situated in the heart of a violence-prone subregion, enjoyed more peaceful race relations and less bloodshed than several neighboring counties. Choosing an atypical locality as central to his study, English raises questions about factors affecting ethnic disturbances in the Black Belt and elsewhere in Alabama. He also uses Perry County, which he deems an anomalous county, to caution against the tendency of some scholars to make sweeping generalizations about entire regions and subregions. English contends Perry County was a relatively tranquil place with a set of extremely influential African American businessmen, clergy, politicians, and other leaders during Reconstruction. Together with egalitarian or opportunistic white citizens, they headed a successful campaign for black agency and biracial cooperation that few counties in Alabama matched. English also illustrates how a significant number of educational institutions, a high density of African American residents, and an unusually organized and informed African American population were essential factors in forming Perry's character. He likewise traces the development of religion in Perry, the nineteenth-century Baptist capital of Alabama, and the emergence of civil rights in Perry, an underemphasized center of activism during the twentieth century. This well-researched and comprehensive volume illuminates Perry County's history from the various perspectives of its black, interracial, and white inhabitants, amplifying their own voices in a novel way. The narrative includes rich personal details about ordinary and affluent people, both free and unfree, creating a distinctive resource that will be useful to scholars as well as a reference that will serve the needs of students and general readers.

Excerpt from History of Eufaula, Alabama: The Bluff City of the Chattahoochee The white people did not go far off, but kept out of the way of the troops; and as soon as the treaty was ar ranged, by which the government allowed the white men to buy claims from the Indians, they all came back, and at once perfected such arrangements as best suited them.

A groundbreaking contribution to the history of the "long Civil Rights movement," Hammer and Hoe tells the story of how, during the 1930s and 40s, Communists took on Alabama's repressive, racist police state to fight for economic justice, civil and political rights, and racial equality. The Alabama Communist Party was made up of working people without a Euro-American radical political tradition: devoutly religious and semiliterate black laborers and sharecroppers, and a handful of whites, including unemployed industrial workers, housewives, youth, and renegade liberals. In this book, Robin D. G. Kelley reveals how the experiences and identities of these people from Alabama's farms, factories, mines, kitchens, and city streets shaped the Party's tactics and unique political culture. The result was a remarkably resilient movement forged in a racist world that had little tolerance for radicals. After discussing the book's origins and impact in a new preface written for this twenty-fifth-anniversary edition, Kelley reflects on what a militantly antiracist, radical movement in the heart of Dixie might teach contemporary social movements confronting rampant inequality, police violence, mass incarceration, and neoliberalism.

In this multidimensional analysis, Benjamin A. Elman uses over a thousand newly available examination records from the Yuan, Ming, and Ch'ing dynasties, 1315-1904, to explore the social, political, and cultural dimensions of the civil examination system, one of the most important institutions in Chinese history. For over five hundred years, the most important positions within the dynastic government were usually filled through these difficult examinations, and every other year some one to two million people from all levels of society attempted them. Covering the late imperial system from its inception to its demise, Elman revises our previous understanding of how the system actually worked, including its political and cultural machinery, the unforeseen consequences when it was unceremoniously scrapped by modernist reformers, and its long-term historical legacy. He argues that the Ming-Ch'ing civil examinations from 1370 to 1904 represented a substantial break with T'ang-Sung dynasty literary examinations from 650 to 1250. Late imperial examinations also made "Tao Learning," Neo-Confucian learning, the dynastic orthodoxy in official life and in literati culture. The intersections between elite social life, popular culture, and religion that are also considered reveal the full scope of the examination process throughout the late empire.
