'Stars and Bars' is a rare 1863 account of the first two years of the American Civil War. Written by Isaac Kelso, 'Stars and Bars' is a piece of historical fiction giving light to the horrors of the Civil War in Missouri, intending to provide Union civilians an understanding of a Southern perspective. The preface states that
"the Northern people have no adequate conception of the actual state of things at the South, and that there is an apathy at the North, from which patriots need to be awakened".
