Synopsis "Trying Temperance Neely: A Story of Murder, Race and Reconstruction Justice in North Carolina"

Centered on the murder of a young white woman, Temperance Neely, this book examines the ensuing investigation, revealing a local struggle over race, power, and authority during the early years of emancipation following the Civil War. Through close attention to legal proceedings, community responses, and political tensions, it situates the crime within the broader effort to redefine citizenship and justice in the postwar South. This book utilizes information from court records, government documents, newspapers, and firsthand accounts, tracing the actions of freed people, former Confederates, federal officials and vigilante groups, including the Ku Klux Klan. It demonstrates how violence was used as an intimidation tactic, shaping Reconstruction at the local level and undermining federal attempts to enforce civil rights. Through the deconstruction of a single case and its participants, it offers an in-depth analysis of how national policies played out in everyday life, highlighting the continued divide between communities after the war's end.
