We will also be touring the Battle of Westport, Big Blue Battle, Wornall House, Fort Osage, as well as a visit to the Truman Library and Museum, the battle sites of Lone Jack and Lexington, and the Confederate Memorial. Optional sites may include the Steamboat Arabia or the Union Cemetery.

The Add-On Day tour will include Civil War border skirmishes, John Brown’s Cabin and Museum, the site of the Marais des Cygnes Massacre, and at Fort Scott we will see the battlefield and cemetery, from there we will head west to the boyhood home of MG Frederick Funston, John Brown SHS and the Jack Black Battle site, (more or less, depending upon timing).
