Jayhawkers

Using unexploited sources such as letters by brigade members, this book tells the story of Senator James Henry Lane and his "jayhawkers" describing how it was organized and equipped as well as providing details regarding staff and casualties. The author argues that Lane set a precedent for the Union Army's eventual adoption of "hard" tactics toward civilians. He also offers new insight into the relationship between Lane, Lincoln, and the Republicans.
