During the 1920's, the Ku Klux Klan was a national power, active in all 48 states, with 3 million members. In Texas, the Klan had 170, 000 members. Dan Moody obtained the first convictions and prison sentences against the 1920's version of the KKK. He then rallied public opinion against the Klan in a race for state attorney general. Moody defeated the Klan candidate in a run-off election. The New York Times would later declare Moody's victory "the death-knell of Klan domination" in Texas. At age 33, Moody was elected Texas' youngest governor. He was born and raised in Taylor, Texas and among the b/w photos, is a picture of the Moody Mansion, still open to the public and where Ken Anderson held his book-signing appearance in 2008. Image of signature available. ; Small 4to 9" - 11" tall; 194 pages; 31348; Signed by Author .
