Battle of Iuka Fought September 1862 by Price and Rosencrans
The Battle of Iuka on September 1862 pitted two Confederate brigades under Gen. Little against two Federal brigades led by Gen. Rosencrans. Price's force of about 1,000 faced Gen. Grant's 6,000 at Burnsville, with a flanking Federal move by Jacinto catching Price unaware. The Confederate line charged, captured the St. Louis battery, and held the field as darkness fell, leaving many dead and wounded and forcing a retreat to Fulton road.
