Battle of Pea Ridge by Albert Castel These dispositions meant that Pea Ridge would be a battle in which the Southerners attacked from the north and the Northerners from the south—an untypical yet not unique situation in the Civil War. The military consequences of the Pea Ridge campaign were as follows: By invading Arkansas when they did the Federals disrupted Van Dorn's projected movement against St. Louis, and by throwing back the Confederates at Pea Ridge they ended for the time being any serious challenge to their domination over Missouri. This view is presented by Sigel, “Pea Ridge Campaign,” 331; Walter Lee Brown, “Pea Ridge, Gettysburg of the West,” Arkansas Historical Quarterly, XV (Spring, 1956), 15-16; Edward Conrad Smith, The Borderland in the Civil War (New York, 1927), 260; and Bruce Catton, Terrible Swift Sword (New York, 1963), 223. www.civilwarstlouis.com /History2/castelpearidge.htm   (5370 words)

Santa Rosa Press Gazette - Reprint - Pea Ridge FL Immediately upon forming, Pea Ridge would begin receiving a portion of the existing 6-cent state sales tax, a portion of the state tax on gasoline, a portion of any additional taxes passed and more. Because much of the new development in central Santa Rosa has been in the Pea Ridge area, such a city would likely tap quite a revenue source, officials say. Such a move could also usurp any future plans for a city of Pace because Pea Ridge would likely establish borders that would take in much of the area Pace would hope to call its own. www.pearidgefl.com /index.php?module=pagemaster&PAGE_user_op=view_page&PAGE_id=34   (756 words)

Barton/Para: The Battle of Pea Ridge Some of the phrasing from the original song is strangely both relevant and inaccurate when applied to the Civil War battle. Pea Ridge was not far from the Indian Territory, and the disorganized fighting by Cherokee, Creek and Choctaw Indians under Confederate Gen. Albert Pike is a legendary aspect of the battle. But the number of Confederate casualties at Pea Ridge was nowhere near ten thousand; “Pap” Price was wounded, but not fatally; and it was Van Dorn who supposedly ordered the retreat of March 8 with tears in his eyes, not Price. shorock.com /para/civilwar/jw/pearidge.htm   (548 words)

Civil War Archeology, Investigating the Battles at Wilson's Creek and Pea Ridge The 1861 and 1862 battles of Wilson's Creek and Pea Ridge are of interest to historians for the roles they played in keeping Missouri in the Union and setting the stage for the campaigns that allowed the Union to control most of the lands west of the Mississippi by 1863. The overall archeological project is designed to conduct archeological inventory in each park, and identify, record, and evaluate for the National Register of Historic Places each site found. The artifacts, their context, and patterning will allow the archeologists to not only refine details of the battle for park interpretation, but to study the larger issues of command and control, tactical cohesion, and tactical disintegration models on each battlefield in hopes of gaining a better understanding of how each army performed under fire. www.cr.nps.gov /mwac/wicr_peri/index.htm   (424 words)
