Yet for years the incident was nearly forgotten. This updated, second edition of The Lynchings in Duluth includes a new preface by the author, additional research and notes, and suggestions for further reading.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This account of racial violence in the early twentieth century is a genuinely startling and illuminating contribution to our understanding of racial justice in the United States in the twenty-first. Many Americans have found it convenient to think that episodes like this come only from the Jim Crow-era Deep South. The Lynchings in Duluth is a powerful reminder of the broader American pattern.\" --James Fallows, The Atlantic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"A chilling reconstruction of a 1920 racial tragedy. . . . Combining hour-by-hour, day-by-day narrative with expert scholarship based on interviews, suppressed documents and news reports, Fedo skillfully portrays Northern prejudice and violence.\" --Los Angeles Times\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"This tense book punches out a story of devastating fury. . . . As pointed as a Klansman's cap, this book conveys the horror of mob action--and the disturbing truth that it knows no region.\" --Milwaukee Journal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Minnesota Historical Society Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/15\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781681340135\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.70d","brand":"Michael Fedo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36665542181020,"sku":"9781681340135","price":16.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_ce420af3-50dd-4915-8631-6254eed3660b.jpg?v=1603909777","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-lynchings-in-duluth-second-edition-9781681340135","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
