MARCH 6 1862
After several days fighting the Union Army defeats
the Confederates at the battle of Pea Ridge,
Arkansas.
The South, throughout the war continually tried to
control the border state of Missouri. Pea Ridge ended
the South's campaign to achieve this, a campaign which
started in late 1861.
The battle was long and hard, with the Confederates
holding their lines despite repeated Union infantry
and cavalry attacks. The South may have won - but a
shortage of ammunition resulted in them falling back.
