Writings and Paintings by McCord

This website has been developed sequentially -- a step at a time -- rather like a detective story. Foundations were laid among early writings which are, however, the most challenging to read. They can be regarded as basic "source" material for the entire "Reconstruction."

The writing gets increasingly better in the "Applications" arrayed below (as finally clarified in the McCord Report, which should be found easiest of all to read). While the viewer retains therefore an option to experience the Reconstruction as it was developed sequentially, it is nonetheless recommended that the easier "Applications" below be read first.
