One of Woodrell’s earliest novels, it follows a fictional group of bushwhackers as they engage in the guerilla warfare of Quantrill’s Raiders in the Kansas-Missouri battles of the American Civil War. It blends real and made-up, and while it’s savage in its portrayal of the brutality where everyone was a son-of-a-bitch during the war, it kind of meanders and the pacing gets languorous.
