In order to create a more realistic setting, Hill mentions battles and landmarks such as the Battle of Bull Run, a memorable Civil War battle, and two less famous battles that occur near Cowskin Prairie, in McDonald County, and in Wilson's Creek, where dead soldiers' bodies were dumped and covered with dirt. Other landmarks cited are Booneville Hill, Telegraphy Hill, and Bessie's Branch, located near the O'Neills' home.
