Campbell (history, U. of North Texas) examines how Reconstruction affected and was viewed by people on the local level by separately examining six disparate counties in Texas of the 1860s and 70s. By asking who held key county offices and how much change was brought to conservative whites, freedmen, and pro-union Republicans in the different phases of Reconstruction, the author concludes that the pre-Civil War economic elite were not displaced by Reconstruction as has so often been argued.
