In 1854 Congress created the Kansas Territory. The conflict began immediately over the issue of whether Kansas would become a free or slave state.  Passions ran high on both sides, with the conflict raging from 1854 to 1861.  The conflict came to be known as “Bleeding Kansas” and is often considered a sort of dress rehearsal for the soon to erupt US Civil War. Considered an excellent book for Grades 6 & up.
