    Thomas Frederick Dixon Jr. (January 11, 1864 - April 3, 1946) was an American white supremacist, politician, lawyer, Baptist minister, lecturer, novelist, playwright, and filmmaker. Referred to as a "professional racist", Dixon wrote two best-selling novels, The Leopard's Spots: A Romance of the White Man's Burden - 1865-1900 (1902) and The Clansman: A Historical Romance of the Ku Klux Klan (1905), that romanticized Southern white supremacy, endorsed the Lost Cause of the Confederacy, opposed equal rights for blacks, and glorified the Ku Klux Klan as heroic vigilantes. Film director D. W. Griffith adapted The Clansman for the screen in The Birth of a Nation (1915), which inspired the creators of the 20th-century rebirth of the Klan.

  • - A Romance of the Real Lincoln
    av Thomas Dixon
    386,-

    A historical novel of Abraham Lincoln --a dramatic web around the life of Abraham Lincoln which cannot fail to be an historic revelation. The book shows the real Lincoln in the life and death struggle with the forces he fought to save the nation --the radical fanatics of his own party, the Copperhead power which daily threatened his life, and the grim gray armies of Lee threatening the Capitol. Through this drama of blood and tears runs a fascinating love story, which culminates in one of the many attempts made to assassinate the President. In a note to the reader, the author states that "every word in relating to the issues of our national life has been drawn from authentic records in my possession. Nor have I at any point taken a liberty with an essential detail in historical scenes." Thomas Dixon earlier published The Clansman from which D.W. Griffith produced his film Birth of a Nation.

  • - A Novel of Robert E. Lee
    av Thomas Dixon
    330,-

    Robert E. Lee, the Southern hero, is the gallant Man in Gray who moves through this gripping historical romance. The book opens before the war with a typical scene on the Lee plantation that shows the old South in its heyday. Uncle Tom's Cabin, just published, has cast a dark shadow across the nation and there is a tense undercurrent beneath the polished gaiety in the fine old house. The scene shifts to the North, where abolitionist activities are gaining swift headway. With amazing force Dixon shows John Brown ominously arousing the popular feeling. From this prelude of menacing war clouds, with dramatic episodes to depict the course of events of the broad panorama, is told the romantic and tragic gallantry of the South as seen in Robert E. Lee. Thomas Dixon earlier published The Clansman from which D.W. Griffith produced his film Birth of a Nation."Now that my story is done I see that it is the strangest fiction that I have ever written. Because it is true. It actually happened. Every character in it is historic. I have not changed even a name. Every event took place. Therefore it is incredible. Yet I have in my possession the proof establishing each character and each event as set forth. They are true beyond question." -- Thomas Dixon

  • - A Romance of the Real Jefferson Davis
    av Thomas Dixon
    356,-

    "In the historical romance which I have woven of the dramatic events of the life of Jefferson Davis I have drawn his real character unobscured by passion or prejudice. Forced by his people to lead their cause, his genius created an engine of war so terrible in its power that through it five million Southerners, without money, without market, without credit, withstood for four years the shock of twenty million men of their own blood and equal daring, backed by boundless resources. "The achievement is without a parallel in history, and adds new glory to the records of our race. "The scenes have all been drawn from authentic records in my possession. I have not at any point taken a liberty with an essential detail of history." -- Thomas DixonThomas Dixon (1864-1946) earlier published The Clansman from which D.W. Griffith produced his film Birth of a Nation.
