Portraits of Conflict
Brother Pursues Brother
A deeply divided border state, heir to the “Bleeding Kansas” era, Missouri became the third most fought-over state in the war, following Virginia and Tennessee. This volume, the ninth in the series, includes hundreds of photographs, many of them never before published. Thomas P. Sweeney is a retired physician and long-time Civil War historian. He and his wife opened the first museum at Missouri’s famous Wilson’s Creek National Battlefield. Tom currently serves on the Wilson’s Creek Foundation Board of Directors.

Battlefield Calendars
For the third year, the Foundation has partnered with the Bank of Missouri and Wilson’s Creek National Battlefield to produce this monthly calendar with beautiful pictures and inspiring quotes. Many of the illustrations for the calendar are photographs taken by Southwest Missouri Camera Club members. The winning images, along with many others, become part of the unique calendar, which is given as our gift to our members and supporters. Please consider becoming a member of the Foundation so you can enjoy this reminder of the battlefield all year long. Join us today!
