And while it would be convenient to believe that the race riots that happened in the first half of the 20th century in America were confined to a single geographic region, in actuality, they occurred throughout the country. Description for Reader * Provides an overarching analysis of the violence that plagued the United States during a crucial period of race relations through in-depth case studies * Offers a comprehensive explanation for why race riots occurred where they did in the United States * Fills a long-neglected gap in the racial violence literature Details ISBN0313395993 Author Ann V.
