The American Civil War Trans-Mississippi Theater: Wilson's Creek and Prairie Grove
Listen now
Description
Today, the History Guy tells the stories of two little-remembered battles of the civil war, fought west of the Mississippi. The first is one of the earliest battles in the war, where forces met to decide control of the key state of Missouri in the Battle of Wilson’s Creek. Later in the war, a Confederate general put together a rag-tag army to threaten the Missouri again, and met a union force at the battle of Prairie Grove.
