The book delves into the theory and practice of eugenics in the American South, revealing how the pursuit of "strong bloodlines" influenced state laws and public policies from the Progressive Era to World War II. Edward J. Larson highlights the fragmented nature of the eugenics movement, illustrating how it comprised various campaigns led by small, dedicated groups seeking specific legislative changes at the state level. The exploration provides a nuanced understanding of the historical context and implications of these efforts.
