About This Item
From back cover: "Brilliantly weaving together eyewitness accounts, letters, memoirs, newspaper articles, and military reports into a riveting narrative, this definitive biography reveals the personality of William Clarke Quantrill (1837-1865) and the events that transformed a quiet Ohio schoolteacher from a staunchly Unionist family into a virulent pro-slavery Confederate soldier and the most feared and despised guerrilla chieftain of the Civil War."
Book - Good condition. Some rubbing and bumping to covers. Small split at spine at bottom. Some edge/corner wear. Soft corner crease on back cover. Sticker remainder. Text is clean and binding is good, but there are some light soiled spots. A good reading copy.
