Civil War in Missouri and Kansas A War in Four Categories
The Civil War shaped Missouri and Kansas with four main activity types: army clashes, guerrilla raids to deter Federals, guerrilla attacks on civilians, and the Union administration in Missouri. The conflicts, centered in Missouri, included Wilson’s Creek, Westport, Belmont, and Lexington, with Price’s 1864 westward campaign ending at Westport.
