This is the 5th Episode in the series over the Civil War in the Southwest.
In this episode, Baylor goes after the Apaches in the west. Specifically, Mangas Coloradas and Cochise as they escalate their fight against the White Eyes and the Arizona Guards. Meanwhile, the battle of Alamosa gives Baylor some hope. Unfortunately, rumors swirl of a three pronged Fedral invasion of Mesilla and Fort Fillmore. Over in Texas, Baylor raises his three armies and they eventually march west to New Mexico. I cover Baylor’s murder of a journalist, the commanders of Sibley’s Brigade’s, and the status of the other Western Territories in regards to their rumors of joining the Rebellion.
The slideshow contains: Alamo at San Antonio, San Antonio River Walk, Fort Craig, Battlefield of Valverde, Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Glorietta Pass & Pecos National Historical Park, and Glorietta Pass Battlefield, Stone Mountain in Atlanta, Georgia.
