Dr. Samuel V. Allen was at the epicenter of the American Civil War, Missouri. A native Virginian that lived in the shadows of Pro-Union Columbia and a Union occupied Jefferson City, he was challenged at every turn with the new state of affairs after the outbreak of the Civil War.
His southern Boone County home in the Missouri border state had become a border county in a border township to pro and anti-slavery forces. An old veteran's simple suggestion caused this respected doctor to end up in i
mprisoned. This is the saga of his life, imprisonment and release in Southern Boone County Missouri.
Boone County Quandary shows the very complicated relationships of those that straddled neighbors with both Union and Confederate sentiments in Missouri.
