ebook
The North had won the Civil War and reunited the Union. African-American slaves were freed and made citizens. The South was in ruins.

Former slaves were freed, made citizens, and granted the right to vote, but still faced terrible discrimination. Author Marsha Ziff highlights the people and events involved in this turbulent period, examining the frustration and the determination of African Americans as they began their journey out of the ruins of slavery and the Civil War toward freedom and equality. This book is developed from RECONSTRUCTION FOLLOWING THE CIVIL WAR IN AMERICAN HISTORY to allow republication of the original text into ebook, paperback, and trade editions.
