by Stanley F. Horn

Invisible Empire: The Story of the Ku Klux Klan 1866-1871 is a historical account written by Stanley F. Horn that delves into the origins and rise of the Ku Klux Klan in the United States. The book provides a detailed analysis of the Klan's formation, its early members and leaders, and the motivation behind its violent and racist actions. Horn traces the Klan's evolution from a small group of Confederate veterans into a powerful organization that terrorized African Americans and other minority groups during the Reconstruction era. The book also explores the political and social climate of the time, including the tensions between the North and South, the struggle for civil rights, and the impact of the Klan on American society.
