The aftermath of the Civil War saw the Ku Klux Klan founded as a white supremacist insurgency of former Confederate rebels. But the Klan saw its greatest growth in the first decades of the 20th century. By 1925, with a membership of about four million, it was established in every state of the Union. Fueling its incredible growth was a potent combination of public relations expertise and high-pressure sales tactics applied to the business of hate. Its sinister legacy still confronts us today. Collected here for the first time is a massive dossier of original source material documenting this...

CONVICTS: They are hardcore career criminals, tough, unregenerate wise guys who are so smart that they spend most of their lives in prison. They live for rape, robbery, narcotics, violence and murder - and that's when they're behind bars.
JAILBIRDS: Here are the gutter sweepings of the jailhouse system: second-rate, penny-ante crooks, thieves, dope peddlers, strong-arm goons and scam artists. They dream only of getting up enough nerve to pull off some heavy scores and graduate to big-time plunder and murder.
AND REFORM SCHOOL GIRLS: Forming switchblade-wielding girl gangs, taking...

We are the rogue males of 1950s crime. In a lost America of big cars, cheap gas and open roads, we travel in rape, violence and sudden death. We stoke ourselves on booze, reefers, pep pills and heroin. We mock law and society's rules. Work? That's for jerks. Impulse is our only master. We take what we please, be it a payroll, a woman, or a life Our numbers are legion, from two-bit punks to Park Avenue playboys, from mama's boys to hardboiled hoodlums. Drifters, beatniks, dope fiends, rape artists, grifters, teenage delinquents, and many more. We're all here, and these are our true life...

Inside the twisted mind of the sex killer, lust and murder are inextricably linked. He needs to control, terrorize and degrade his victims. Too often, violation becomes torture and murder- and sometimes, the unholy desecration of the deceased. Here, from the detective and police magazines of the 1950s, is a casebook of the most infamous sex fiends ever to stain the true crime annals of the first half of the 20th century. Nightmare figures, many of whom continue to haunt our popular culture and motion pictures: Ed Gein, sex butcher and necrophile who inspired Alfred Hitchcock's PSYCHO; Leopold...

As a result of its size, history, immigration flows, and institutional complexity at the city, county, state, and national levels, the United States is characterized by disparate yet coexisting systems of political economy and labor policy. Some of the northeastern, midwestern, and western states have at times had a kind of "laborist capitalism" in which public policy and prominent employers acknowledged union power and legitimacy. In the South, things are different: Mississippi and South Carolina are among the states least hospitable to unionism. In such states, local business interests...
