520    Winner of the Gulf South Historical Association's Michael 
       Thomas Book Award. In Searching for Freedom after the 
       Civil War: Klansman, Carpetbagger, Scalawag, and Freedman,
       G. Ward Hubbs uses a stark and iconic political cartoon to
       illuminate postwar conflicts over the meaning of freedom 
       in the American South.   The cartoon first appeared in the
       Tuskaloosa Independent Monitor, published by local Ku Klux
       Klan boss Ryland Randolph, as a swaggering threat aimed at
       three individuals. Hanged from an oak branch clutching a 
       carpetbag marked "OHIO" is the Reverend Arad S. Lakin, the
       Northern-born incoming president of the University of 
       Alabama. Swinging from another noose is Dr. Noah B. Cloud-
       agricultural reformer, superintendent of education, and 
       deemed by Randolph a "scalawag" for joining Alabama's 
       reformed state government. The accompanying caption, 
       penned in purple prose, similarly threatens Shandy Jones, 
       a politically active local man of color.   Using a dynamic
       and unprecedented approach that interprets the same events
       through four points of view, Hubbs artfully unpacks 
       numerous layers of meaning behind this brutal two-
       dimensional image.   The four men associated with the 
       cartoon-Randolph, Lakin, Cloud, and Jones-were archetypes 
       of those who were seeking to rebuild a South shattered by 
       war. Hubbs explores these broad archetypes but also delves
       deeply into the four men's life stories, writings, 
       speeches, and decisions in order to recreate each one's 
       complex worldview and quest to live freely. Their lives, 
       but especially their four very different understandings of
       freedom, help to explain many of the conflicts of the 
       1860s. The result is an intellectual tour de force.   
       General readers of this highly accessible volume will 
       discover fascinating new insights about life during and 
       after America's greatest crisis, as will scholars of the 
       Civil War, 
520 8  Reconstruction, and southern history.
