This book is a thorough study of all known guerrilla operations in
Civil War Missouri between January and August 1864. It explores
different tactics each side attempted during this time period to
gain advantage over each other with regional differences as
influenced by the differing personalities of local commanders. The
author utilises both well-known and obscure sources (including
military and government records, private accounts, county and other
local histories, period and later newspapers, and secondary sources
published after the war) to identify which Southern partisan
leaders and groups operated in which areas of Missouri, and
describe how they operated and how their kinds of warfare evolved.
This work presents the actions of Southern guerrilla forces and
Confederate behind-Union-lines recruiters chronologically by region
so that readers may see the relationship of seemingly isolated
events to other events over a period of time in a given area. The
book also studies the counteractions of an array of different types
of Union troops fighting guerrillas in Missouri to show how
differences in training, leadership and experience affected
behaviours and actions in the field.
