Dana Bash History Book, 1872 Election and Reconstruction

CNN's Dana Bash is promoting her new book, "America's Deadliest Election," which chronicles the violent 1872 presidential election. The book explores the Colfax Massacre, the rise of the Ku Klux Klan, and the end of Reconstruction. The timing of the book release is viewed as a parallel to modern political tensions and the "MAGA" movement.
