President Andrew Johnson tried to enact Lincoln's more lenient Reconstruction plan, but the Republican Congress was determined to prevent the South from returning to its old ways. When Johnson fired his Secretary of War over disagreements, it led to his impeachment, and he narrowly retained the Presidency. "Radical Reconstruction" was soon underway, with military governors taking control of the states of the former Confederacy.
here's a blurb i found when trying to answer this same question for my homework:Radical Reconstruction, also known as Congressional Reconstruction, was the time when congressional Republicans, moderates and Radicals, controlled Reconstruction in the South. Prior to Republican control, Andrew Johnson's Presidential Reconstruction had allowed ex-Confederate leaders to regain power in southern state governments. He lost control over Reconstruction when congressional elections in the fall of 1866 led to a two-thirds majority of Republicans in both houses of Congress. When the Fortieth Congress returned in March 1867, presidential Reconstruction ended.Hope that helped you!!
