Bloody Bill Anderson - Paperback

by Gayle Lunning (Author)

Bloody Bill Anderson is a historical fiction novel of a real person that did unreal acts. Name bad men in history, Caligula - Hitler - Charles Manson, more? You may have your own list of heartless maniacal killers. Add to your list and mine, Bloody Bill Anderson for he was a ruthless, vicious killer. He certainly qualifies as a 'bad man' but I have met many who still consider him a hero. The people with this point of view are descendants of the thousands of people in western Missouri to be driven from long established homes by the infamous General Order Number 11. To these people, the atrocities committed by the Union, Jayhawkers and Redlegs against southern sympathizer's justified Bloody Bill Anderson's heinous acts in retribution. Bad man or hero, you decide.
