"This book tells the story of the Republican Party in the South from Reconstruction
through the late-1960s. The history of the Grand Old Party (GOP) in the South during
Reconstruction is fairly well known, as is its reemergence in the region during the
Barry Goldwater and Richard Nixon presidential campaigns in 1964 and 1968. What is
not well known, however, is the period in between: what did the GOP in the South look
like between the end of Reconstruction and before the modern 'Southern strategy'?
A common assumption is that the Republican Party in the South all but disappeared
after the demise of Reconstruction, and that it only reemerged when the national Democratic
Party went "all in" on civil rights in the mid-1960s while the national Republican
Party (led by Goldwater) largely rejected civil rights.1 Certainly, the Southern GOP
achieved little electoral success in the region in this period. Yet, the Republican
Party remained in existence in every state of the ex-Confederacy"
