The Battle of Plum Run in Bloomington, MN

The story of the naval battle for control of the Upper Mississippi in the American Civil War. Employing the ill-fated bastion of Fort Pillow as its focus, The Battle of Plum Run depicts the squalid history of Union occupation in West Tennessee, as well as the hatred, bigotry and greed that culminated in the Fort Pillow Massacre. A companion volume to Andrew Ward's critically praised River Run Red, The Battle of Plum Run is rich in research, telling detail, driving narrative, and a cast of unforgettable characters.
