Summary
Details

""In preparing this book I have departed in many particulars from the ordinary course and established custom of compilers of county histories. I have endeavored to give the causes which led up to our early troubles, and to delineate, to some extent, the public sentiment and feeling of given periods. I have kept in touch with the various Territorial Governments, Administrations, Legislatures and prominent public men, in order that the reader may have an intelligent understanding of the situation. I have intended this book to be of refreshing interest to the old settler, and to be especially interesting and instructive to the young men and women of Bourbon County."" - T. F. Robley.

This history covers a wide variety of topics including the Louisiana Purchase, Colonel H. T. Wilson, Annexation of Texas, Early Settlers of Bourbon County, the Kansas-Nebraska Bill, First Elections, Texas Rangers, Slaves in Bourbon County, Squatter's Court, U.S. Troops at Fort Scott, Some Old Settlers of 1858, Kansas is Free, Amnesty Law, N.Y.
