The story of Bill Wilson has been told and re-told throughout the Ozarks Mountains since he began his bloody career in 1861. He is a true folk hero from the time when the Ozarks were full of men who took to the bush and waged war on the Yankees who had invaded their state.In the summer of 1861, Bill was accused of stealing horses from the Union. He was questioned and released, but a few days later, while he was away from home, a group of Yankees, Red Legs, and Jawhawkers ejected his family from his house, stole everything worth stealing, and burned the house, barn, and outbuildings.From that day forward, Bill became a one-man army intent on killing every Yankee, or Yankee sympathizer, he could find. He became one of the best known Bushwhackers in Missouri, along with men like Sam Hildebrand, another Missouri Bushwhacker legend.After the war ended, with a $300 bounty on his head, Bill left Missouri. As did many ex-Confederates, he took off for Texas.The end of the Bill Wilson story is said to have come in Sherman, Texas. Two of his ex-comrades, former Missouri Partisan Rangers, apparently got the drop on him and murdered him for the cash he was carrying. The two men, William O. Blackmore and John Thompson, were apprehended, tried, and convicted of the murder. They ware hanged on 26 March, 1869 in Sherman, Texas at 1:00 p.m.

Bushwhackers in the American Civil War operated as guerrillas, outside the normal chain of military command. Like William Clarke Quantrill and "Bloody Bill" Anderson, Samuel Hildebrand was a proud Missouri bushwhacker. In this long out of print book, Hildebrand describes raids and executions his band of men carried out. He remained at the end of the war and unreconstructed rebel and fervent racist. Like many of his southern brethren who fought, he never owned slaves but kept a captured black man with him after the war. This self-serving but fascinating account is a valuable addition to the canon of Civil War literature. In it, Hildebrand claims that others have tried to tell his story but have gotten it wrong, so he has a notarized statement by prominent men included as verification of authenticity. Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever.

"A vivid impression of a boastfully murderous mentality unique in Civil War historiography." This auto-biography, as a record of bloody deeds, dare-devil exploits and thrilling adventures, will have no rival in the catalogue of wonders. It unfolds, with minute accuracy, the exploits of Samuel S. Hildebrand, a member of the Irregular military forces in the Civil War era. The guerrilla-actions initiated by these so-called 'Bushwhackers' often escalated into a succession of atrocities committed by both sides, and many were the occasions where suspects from the other side were executed or tortured without trial. Mr. Hildebrand from Missouri was not a nice guy. He describes raids and executions his band of men carried out. This self-serving but fascinating account is a valuable addition to the canon of Civil War literature.

During the Civil War, fourteen-year-old Jacob Knight returns from the cornfield one day to find bushwhackers—Confederate sympathizers in the Union state of Missouri—terrorizing his family. At the insistence of his mother, Jacob and his seven-year-old sister, Eliza, flee the house for safety. When the two young people dare to return home the following morning, their family is nowhere to be found, and their home is burnt to the ground. Not knowing what else to do, Jacob and Eliza take their one remaining horse and journey north to their aunt's home in Iowa, hoping to find their missing family members there. Jennifer Johnson Garrity brings the American Civil War era to life in this story about family, trust, and courage during a time of great uncertainty.
