SynopsisWilliam Clarke Quantrill and his infamous raid of the city of Lawrence in 1863 is known to most who have knowledge of the Civil War on the Missouri/Kansas Border. What led Quantrill and his men to such a drastic and risky undertaking in the first place? Moonlit Mayhem: Quantrill's Raid of Olathe Kansas tells this story from the Bleeding Kansas years to the rise of Quantrill and eventually to the raid on Olathe on September 6, 1862. Quantrill's raid is an event that would shape Olathe's history for many years after and one of which many residents have very little knowledge. Moonlit Mayhem provides a view of life, on both sides of the Missouri/Kansas border. In addition, short summaries of events before and after the Olathe Raid, give the reader a complete picture of the events and key players on both sides. Moonlit Mayhem is packed with over 100 color images maps showing the modern locations of historic events. This meticulously researched work is a must for anyone looking for an easy to understand book on the Border War and its impact on the residents of the border counties. There were no winners and losers in the border war, the residents of the border counties suffered greatly. Moonlit Mayhem tells their story.
