1912. Dixon's earlier works including The Clansman, which was made into the movie, Birth of A Nation, made his reputation as the anti-black novelist for the Jim Crow south. In The Sins of the Father Dixon writes To the Reader: I wish it understood that I have not used in this novel the private life of Captain Randolph Shotwell, to whom this book is dedicated. I have drawn the character of my central figure from the authentic personal history of Major Daniel Norton himself, a distinguished citizen of the far South, with whom I was intimately acquainted for many years.

Excerpt: Henry I the Bearded (Polish: ; German: ; ca. 1165/70 19 March 1238), of the Silesian line of the Piast dynasty, was Duke of Lower Silesia from 1201. He was later also Duke of Lesser Poland and thus senior prince of all Poland - internally divided - from 1232 until his death. He was the son of Bolesaw I the Tall, Duke of Wrocaw, by his second wife Christina, a German noble lady. Henry was born in Gogów (Glogau), Silesia. He was the fourth son of the Ducal couple, and in consequence he had little chance to inherit any land. However, the premature deaths of his older brothers Bolesaw, Konrad and Jan (between 1174 and 1190), also given that his older half-brother Jarosaw was forced into an ecclesiastical career by the intrigues of his stepmother Christina, enabled him to become Bolesaw's heir. As a result Henry began his preparations in the politics affairs under his father. Through his marriage with Hedwig of Andechs, Henry became related to the rulers of Germany, Hungary, Bohemia, and France. At the time of the death of his father, on 7/8 December 1201, Henry was well prepared to take over the government. However he soon encountered some difficulties. At the beginning of 1202 his uncle, Mieszko I Tanglefoot, in a surprise attack, took the Duchy...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=6301248 ... Read more
