Mormons and Cowboys, Moonshiners and Klansmen: Federal Law Enforcement in the South & West, 1870-1893
Stephen Cresswell
In
the decades immediately following the Civil War, the United States
expanded rapidly. As the nation grew, so too did federal law, moving
into areas of citizens lives previously regulated by local custom and
state and territorial statutes.In Mormons and Cowboys, Moonshiners and
Klansmen, Cresswell uses then moves beyond a case-study approach to
illuminate larger questions including the evolution of the American
criminal justice system, the relationship of the South and the West to
the rest of the nation, the workings of the 19th-century American
bureaucracy, and conflict of the local, state, and federal governments.
Out of the efforts of early federal marshals came the modern federal
justice system, with its firm policy guidelines, its Federal Bureau of
Investigation, and its broader powers over the country as a whole."
