"In Portrait of a Scientific Racist James G. Hollandsworth Jr. reveals how the conjectures of one of the country's most prominent racial theorists, Alfred Holt Stone, helped justify a repressive racial order that relegated African Americans to the margins of southern society in the early 1900s." "In this revealing biography, Hollandsworth examines the thoughts and motives of this renowned man, focusing primarily on Stone's most intensive period of theorizing, from 1900 to 1910." "Hollandsworth uses Stone's extensive correspondence with Willcox, Du Bois, and Washington, as well as his personal writings - both published and unpublished - to reveal the secrets of this misguided, yet fascinating, figure."--BOOK JACKET.
