Young men took to the brush and woods to wage a guerilla war against invading soldiers in blue uniforms. Branded as rebels and bushwhackers, these young men fought for their homes and their families. The woods became their homes and their horses became their means of survival. Fighting against overwhelming odds became a way of life. Men such as William Quantrill and Bloody Bill Anderson became men of legend in this fight. They would be known as heroes to some and outlaws to others. This is their story.
