The book ""The Constitution and the Ritual of the Knights of the White Camelia"" by Walter L. Fleming is a detailed study of the secretive organization known as the Knights of the White Camelia, which was active in the Southern United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book examines the group's origins, beliefs, and practices, as well as its impact on Southern society and politics.Fleming's work is based on extensive research, including a thorough analysis of the organization's constitution and ritual, which he presents in full. He also explores the Knights' connections to other white supremacist groups of the era, such as the Ku Klux Klan, and their efforts to maintain white supremacy in the face of social and political change.The book is an important contribution to the study of American history, particularly the history of race relations and white supremacy in the South. It provides valuable insights into the attitudes and beliefs of those who sought to preserve the racial hierarchy of the region during a time of significant social and political upheaval.1904.
