Meet the fascinating characters who came to Big Sky country after the war, including guerrillas who fought with William Quantrill and Bloody Bill Anderson, as well as cavalrymen who rode with Confederate legends General Nathan Bedford Forrest and Colonel John S. Mosby. Robison explains where these soldiers came from, why they fought for the South, what drew them to the Montana Territory, and how they helped shape the region.
