Description:Hope Never to See It illustrates two exceptional incidents of occupational and guerrilla violence in Missouri during the American Civil War.

Both the Union spy and the infamous Confederate guerrilla claimed to be avenging the deaths of their families, operated under orders from military officials, and were hard drinkers. Their acts outline the terror inflicted on both sides of the struggle.This book’s use of sequential art displays these grisly realities to mute the war’s glorification and to help prompt a modern, meaningful reconciliation with the war.
