About QUANTRILL'S RAIDERS IN North Texas And Grayson
When one thinks of William Quantrill, Bloody Bill Anderson, and men like the James and Younger Brothers, they may automatically think of Missouri and Kansas. But Quantrill’s Raiders are a fascinating part of Grayson County and North Texas history as well. This book will attempt to explore their activities in North Texas, both during, and after the Civil War. This writer’s purpose is not to overtly try to take one side over the other, concerning the morality of that war, or those who fought in it. Many original sources will be presented from the time of the war and shortly afterward explaining the times. Both sides will be presented and the humanity of the people involved will be taken into consideration. This book will contain some information which is not available from any other source and will examine the Raiders from a unique perspective.CONTENTS: Introduction / OverviewIntroductionQuantrill’s Raiders In Grayson County Texas, Good Guys or Bad?
