What was the northern view on reconstruction?
The reconstruction, sometimes referred to as the Reconstruction Period, was a space of roughly five years following the American Civil War during which the reconstruction of the Union took place. This was accomplished through the use of legislative power, and military might via the Military Reconstruction Act of 1867. Considering it was predominantly the white Northerners pushing the Act, the overall view of reconstruction was favorable. However, a large majority of Southern whites despised the idea, and resented the action. In spite of this, the newly freed slaves comprised an equally large portion of the Southern populous, and it was due in part to their pleas for citizenship that the reconstruction even took place. Thus, it could be said that the South itself was divided on the issue.
Why were Northerners growing tired of Reconstruction in the mid-1870s?
Northern support for reconstruction failed due to a variety of factors. Chief among them was the high cost of maintaining the reconstruction effort in the south. Due to the hostility of the southerners, an in place military occupation was mandatory. In addition, programs and other adjustments were equally costly. To add fuel to the fire, many northerners soured on the fact after newly freed blacks began to compete with them for unskilled labor jobs.

Why didn't reconstruction work after the civil war?
Reconstruction didn't work after the civil war because the goal of reconstruction was to reintroduce the south back into the union as quickly as possible. There would be no real victory from the war unless the country was put back together. After the south was defeated in 1865 the reconstruction act of 1867 was set into place. Although slaves were freed the south established Black codes that treated the Blacks as slaves but weren't considered slaves. It set limitations on them so it kept them at the bottom of the food chain. Reconstruction ended in 1877 because the military pulled out of the south. The north got tired of spending so much money on the Reconstruction when little was being achieved. Ultimately reconstruction did work just not at the time that the north wanted it to work.
