Summary:
"Often neglected by historians, actions in Missouri and Kansas had an important influence on the course of the Civil War. This book focuses on the experiences of the soldiers, officers and civilians on both sides. The fighting in Missouri culminated with an expedition that re-wrote the books on tactics and the use of mounted infantry"-- Provided by publisher.
