The Burning: The Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921

byTim Madigan

Tim Madigan uses The Burning to investigate the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921 through a carefully framed historical account. Its account follows central actors and turning points while showing how the story reflects questions in the connected fields of history and social science. Throughout, the author balances an accessible narrative with the complexity needed to understand motives, constraints, and disputed interpretations. The Burning leaves readers with key context and a clear view of the human stakes involved. Historical context and individual experience remain equally important to the book's explanation.
