The Battle of Wilson's Creek - Bull Run of The West: American Civil War - Part 2 

In the first episode of our series about the Trans Mississippi theater of the American civil war, we looked at the start of the war in Missouri and how the two sides finally clashed in the battles around Boonville and Carthage. In this episode we will finally see how the two armies meet for a full scale battle at Wilson's Creek.
This is our second video on the channel, and part 2 in our series. The next episode will follow the winter campaign of 61/62 and see the lead up to the battle of Pea Ridge.
