"The first comprehensive examination of the nineteenth-century Ku-Klux Klan since
the 1970s, Ku-Klux pinpoints the group's rise with startling acuity. Historians have
traced the origins of the Klan to Pulaski, Tennessee, in 1866, but the details behind
the group's emergence have long remained shadowy. By parsing the earliest descriptions
of the Klan, Elaine Frantz Parsons reveals that it was only as reports of the Tennessee
Klan's mysterious and menacing activities began circulating in northern newspapers
that whites enthusiastically formed their own Klan groups throughout the South. The
spread of the Klan was thus intimately connected with the politics and mass media
of the North"
