520    The brilliant, amoral, and spectacularly bold Bessie Tyler
       and Edward Young Clarke-together, the Southern Publicity 
       Association-met the fervent William Joseph Simmons 
       (founder of the second KKK), saw an opportunity, and 
       played on his many weaknesses. Tyler and Clarke took 
       Simmons's dying and broken KKK, with its two thousand to 
       three thousand associates in Georgia and Alabama, and in a
       few short years swelled its membership to nearly five 
       million. Chapters were established in every state of the 
       union, and the Klan began influencing American political 
       and social life. Between one-third and one-half of the 
       eligible men in the country belonged to the organization. 
       Even to modern sensibilities, the extent of Tyler and 
       Clarke's scheme is shocking: the limitlessness of their 
       audacity; the full-scale and ongoing con of Simmons; the 
       size of the personal fortunes they earned, amassed, and 
       stole in the process; and just how easily and expertly 
       they exploited the particular fears and prejudices of 
       every corner of America. You will recognize in this pair a
       very American sense of showmanship and an accepted, even 
       celebrated, brash entrepreneurial hustle. And as their 
       story winds down, you will recognize the tainted and 
       ultimately ineffectual congressional hearings into the 
       Klan's monumental growth.
