Weird how reputable historians claim Philippi to be the first land "battle" of the Civil War then. Really weird.

Other reputable historians claim The Battle of Blackjack to be the first true Civil War battle.

Other historians claim Fort Sumter.

It is what it is.

However, what is not debatable is that Missouri and Kansas were fighting the civil war long before the North and the South.

No debate.
