Now Franklin has updated his work to acknowledge the enormous body of research and scholarship that followed in the wake of the first edition. New are Franklins references to important, later texts that enrich the original narrative. In addition, the extensive bibliography has been thoroughly revised.

Still compelling are his arguments concerning the brevity of the Norths military occupation of the South, the limited amount of power wielded by former slaves, the influence of moderate southerners, the flaws of the constitutions drawn up by the Radical state governments, and the reasons for the downfall of Reconstruction.
