Book Synopsis General Francis Marion, Irregular Life of an Irregular Warrior by : Craig Campbell
Download or read book General Francis Marion, Irregular Life of an Irregular Warrior written by Craig Campbell and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-01-17 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a historical biography on General Francis Marion, also known as the "Swamp Fox". He is known to history as a premier fighter and battlefield innovator. In one of the darkest chapters of the War for American independence his resolute personal courage and leadership brought the best units in the British Empire to a standstill and kept the dream of independence alive after the disastrous fall of Charleston, SC in 1780. When General Gate's army was destroyed at Camden there was no effective American force to oppose Cornwallis in his conquest of the southern colonies. Marion's irregulars tied down Cornwallis' forces to deal with an insurgency that bought time for General Washington to assemble another army under Daniel Morgan and General Greene to combat the British main effort. If not for Francis Marion's ability to confound the British efforts in South Carolina, Lord Cornwallis and the British could have very well succeeded in their overall strategy to sever the Carolinas, Georgia and possibly Virginia from the emerging United States.
Book Synopsis Southern Brigadier Generals in the Revolutionary War by : Douglas M. Branson
Download or read book Southern Brigadier Generals in the Revolutionary War written by Douglas M. Branson and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2024-07-09 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories of Southern brigadier generals during the Revolutionary War remain largely forgotten or untold, but their experiences were unique. During the war, 13 of the 58 brigadier generals (the lowest-ranking generals) who served under George Washington died because of combat wounds or under British captivity. Seven of those 13 hailed from the southernmost and (excepting Virginia) less populated colonies. Proportionally, they were more likely to become casualties or prisoners than were their Northern counterparts, and they were far more likely than were the more senior major generals (only one of whom died during the war, out of 28 total officers). This book profiles the 18 Southern brigadier generals and their service during the American Revolution. It makes the case that Washington and his brigadier generals, especially the Southern brigadiers, won the war in spite of the major generals, many of whom exhibited cowardice, alcoholism, insubordination, womanizing, or ineffective leadership; more than half of the major generals were effectively cashiered or voluntarily left military service long before Yorktown and the war's conclusion. The author demonstrates that, as much as Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, and other politicians, the war's brigadier generals should be viewed as founding fathers, too.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A bevy of trouble is coming his way and it looks to be sooner, rather than later! Little does Thomas know that taking on a job as a courier during a war would lead him into more danger and harrowing experiences than his 15-year-old self could ever imagine! His questionable future looms ahead of him as a pistol in the hands of his guard jabs him squarely in the back. Who are these two ragtag men who forced him off the back of his horse, Ebony, over an hour ago? Why are they compelling him to trudge along this spongy path through the swamp to who knows where? While the stench and unidentifiable sounds from the marshland frighten him, he is more fearful of the destination. What if they are taking him to a British camp? He has a packet that could possibly seal his fate – a packet that probably has treasonable information! His plans to deliver it are now in peril, and possibly his life!

Book excerpt: This book is a work of fiction, but it does follow closely the actual history of Francis Marion's life with a summary of major historical dates from 1761 to 1795. Because there are no records covering long periods of his life, the author Forrest E. Hill fills in those blanks with exciting tales of how Francis Marion and his companions survived living in the swamps and woods of the South Carolina Low Country, their successful attacks with British forces, and his role as a member of the Continental Army.
