Wilson's Creek National Battlefield

Join Ranger Clayton for a program on the parallel lives of some of the leaders and common soldiers who fought on both sides of the Battle of Wilson's Creek. Though divided by war, they were bound together by experiences shared with many other Americans.  Experience the prelude, course, and – sometimes – aftermath of the Civil War in Missouri and beyond. See who you'd follow.
