Description

While many books have been written about WIlliam Quantrill, “Bloody Bill” Anderson, George Todd, and other noted guerrillas, this book dives into some of the lives of lesser known figures from the Federal Army: George Todd, Aaron Canton, John Durnell, and more. These Union cavalry men served in Missouri, and are just five of the anonymous thousands who, in the end, defeated the guerrillas and have been forgotten with the passage of time– until now.
