They Called Themselves the K.K.K.: the Birth of an American Terrorist Group by Susan Campbell Bartoletti
Bartoletti takes the reader on a well-researched, thorough journey from the K.K.K.’s inception to its ultimate legal demise. The power of this book lies in its authentic stories from firsthand accounts of those who had run-ins with the terrorist group. Also, Bartoletti includes an abundance of photographs, illustrations, and maps to provide us with genuineness and immediacy of the narrative.
A Civil Rights Time Line, Quote Attributions, Bibliography and Source Notes, and Index are included in the back of the book. They Called Themselves the K.K.K. is excellent, meticulous non-fiction that is appropriate for middle school readers and beyond.
