A true history of Quantrell's guerilla warfare on the Missouri and Kansas border during the Civil War of 1861 to 1865 as told by Captain Harrison Trow, the one who followed Quantrell through his whole course.
This book was written just as Captain Harrison Trow told it to John P. Burch, giving accounts of fights that he participated in, narrow escapes experienced, dilemmas it seemed almost impossible to get out of, and also other battles; the life of the James boys and Youngers as they were with Quantrell during the war, and after the war, when they became outlaws by publicity of the daily newspapers, being accused of things which they never did and which were laid at their feet.
