Synopsis
An informative guide to one of the Civil War&’s most ferociously contested theaters: &“Concise and fact-filled . . . Excellent.&” —Military Review During the Civil War, only Virginia and Tennessee saw more action than Missouri. Ulysses S. Grant first proved his ability there. Sterling Price, a former governor of Missouri, sided with the Confederacy, raised an army, and led it in battle all over the state. Notorious guerrilla warriors &“Bloody&” Bill Anderson and William Quantrill terrorized communities and confounded Union military commanders. This valuable resource provides a chronological overview of more than three hundred of the documented engagements that took place within Missouri&’s borders, furnishing photos, maps, biographical sketches, and military tactics.
