Nathaniel Lyon, a notoriously harsh officer in the US army, is sent to St. Louis to ensure Missouri’s place in the Union. His policies have the effect of alienating much of the population of the city, which is predominantly Unionist, leading to the formation of a secessionist resistance group at Camp Jackson. Chris Calton recounts the controversial history of the Civil War. This is the 17th episode in the third season of Historical Controversies.
