Between 1854 and 1861, the struggle between pro-and anti-slavery
factions over Kansas Territory captivated Americans nationwide and
contributed directly to the Civil War. Combining political, social,
and military history, Bleeding Kansas contextualizes and analyzes
prewar and wartime clashes in Kansas and Missouri and traces how
these conflicts have been remembered ever since. Michael E. Woods's
compelling narrative of the Kansas-Missouri border struggle
embraces the diverse perspectives of white northerners and
southerners, women, Native Americans, and African Americans. This
wide-ranging and engaging text is ideal for undergraduate courses
on the Civil War era, westward expansion, Kansas and/or Missouri
history, nineteenth-century US history, and other related subjects.
Supported by primary source documents and a robust companion
website, this text allows readers to engage with and draw their own
conclusions about this contentious era in American History.
