Title: Another book to try to find.
Review: It is probably out of print, but anyone horrified by "Trouble in Mind" must find a copy of "The History of Violence in America," by Hugh Davis Graham and Ted Robert Gurr. It is "A Report Submitted to the National Commission on the Causes and Prevention of Violence" (how quaint this all seems now). It is a Bantam Paperback, June, 1969. The period of Professor Litwack's wonderful book is pre-WW2. "Violence" will take you up to 1969, with accounts of the same stuff being done by "vigilante groups" and other such organizations, of course including the civil rights murders in the south.
