Description

Three towns. Three massacres. One brutal truth about the Civil War that textbooks like to skip. In this episode, we dive into the darkest side of Confederate guerrilla warfare. The murder sprees, executions, and terror campaigns carried out by men like Bloody Bill Anderson, Champ Ferguson, and William Clarke Quantrill. From the Centralia Massacre to the Saltville killings to the fiery destruction of Lawrence, Kansas, we break down how these raids blurred the line between soldier and outlaw. Brutal tactics, no-quarter orders, and the kind of revenge killing that turned Missouri and Kentucky into the Wild West before the Wild West even existed.
