What is The Civil War On The Lower Kansas-missouri Border about?
As suggested by the title, this book covers the history of America’s Civil War on the southern portion of the Kansas-Missouri border. It excludes several notable episodes of the war on the border, such as Quantrill’s raid on Lawrence, that fall outside its narrow geographic limits and that have been covered in detail by previous authors. It concentrates instead on lesser-known events such as Senator Jim Lane’s raid on Osceola, Missouri, the sacking of Humboldt, Kansas, and Quantrill’s battle and massacre at Baxter Springs.<br> <br> Larry Wood is a retired public school teacher and a member of Western Writers of America who has written on historical topics for publications such as <i>America’s Civil War, Blue and Gray Magazine, Gateway Heritage, The Ozarks Mountaineer, True West</i>, and <i>Wild West</i>.
