    Listen now to get the main key ideas from Timothy Egan’s A Fever in the Heartland.

    In A Fever in the Heartland (2023), journalist Timothy Egan offers a historical account of the rise and fall of the Ku Klux Klan in Indiana during the 1920s. Egan provides a detailed examination of this dark chapter in American history, highlighting the courage of those who stood against the KKK’s influence and the enduring impact of its ideologies. Following the lives of D.C. Stephenson, the Grand Dragon of the KKK, and Madge Oberholtzer, an innocent woman who became entangled with him, Egan chronicles the events that led Oberholtzer to her deathbed and Stephenson and the Klan to their knees.
