...unfortunately for the South, Albert Sydney Johnston was killed at Shiloh six months prior...Price and Van Dorn were not his equal.

....thanks for posting this Mainepatsfan...most people think the WBTS was all about Lee and Grant fighting in Virginia...however, some of the biggest battles were actually in the Trans-Mississippi theater.

I just finished a great book on the battle of Pea Ridge and their performance at that fight wasn't much to write home about either.
