Synopsis
Accounts of history's greatest conflicts, detailing the command strategies, tactics and battle experiences of the opposing forces throughout the crucial stages of each campaign, Cowpens 1781, Turning point of the American Revolution, Tension had long been simmering between British loyalists in the southern coastal enclaves and the patriot back-country settlers. The disastrous British defeats at Saratoga in late 1777 made a southern strategy attractive to the Crown, and a string of victories over the rebels ensued. When Charlestown fell on May 12, 1780, a horrific partisan war began, growing in scale and savagery. Determined to crush the last vestiges of rebellion, Cornwallis sent the hard-charging Banastre Tarleton in pursuit of Daniel Morgan's rebel army through the South Carolina interior. Using bird's-eye-views, vivid illustrations and detailed maps, this superbly illustrated book explores in detail Morgan's decisive stand at Hannah's Cowpens, one of the finest tactical performances of the war. A brief but explosive clash, the encounter dramatically changed the course of the American Revolution. Book jacket., This is a blistering account of the battle of Cowpens, a short, sharp conflict which marked a crucial turning point in the American Revolution. With Lt. Col. Banastre Tarleton and the British troops in hot pursuit, Daniel Morgan, leading a small force of 700 Continentals and militia, chose the Cowpens as the battlefield in which to make a stand. The two forces clashed for barely more than 45 minutes, yet this brief battle shaped the outcome of the War in the South, and decisively influenced the conflict as a whole. The authors provide a shrewd analysis of what was perhaps the finest tactical performance of the entire war. Bird's-eye views, vivid illustrations and detailed maps illuminate the dynamism of this clash between two of the most famous commanders of the War of Independence.
