However, the lynching violence that occurred in American regions \u003cu\u003eoutside\u003c\/u\u003e the South, where hundreds of persons, including Hispanics, whites, African Americans, Native Americans, and Asian Americans died at the hands of lynch mobs, has received less attention. This collection of essays by prominent and rising scholars fills this gap by illuminating the factors that distinguished lynching in the West, the Midwest, and the Mid-Atlantic. The volume adds to a more comprehensive history of American lynching and will be of interest to all readers interested in the history of violence across the varied regions of the United States.\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eContributors are Jack S.
