Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[...]promise, or frowning friends could threaten. The neighboring clergy now marked the conduct of Marion with a keener eye; and discovering in him no symptoms that pointed to recantation, they furiously pressed the bishop to enforce against him the edict of banishment. At this time, Marion with his lovely Louisa, were living on a small farm in the vicinity of Rochelle. As he walked one afternoon in the main street of that city, he was very rudely accosted by a couple of officers of the holy inquisition, whose looks and dress were as dark and diabolical as their employment. "Vous etes nommes Marion?" said they; that is "your name is Marion?" "Yes, gentlemen, that is my name." Upon this, they rudely thrust a letter into his hand, and turned away, but with such looks as tigers throw at a tender lambkin, whose well-guarded fold forbids their access. On opening the letter he found as follows: "Your damnable heresy, well deserves, even in this life, that purgation by fire which awfully awaits it in the next. But, in consideration of your youth and worthy connexions, our mercy has condescended to commute your punishment to[...]".

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most fascinating figures of the American Revolution, General Francis Marion slipped in and out of the Carolina swamps to strike sudden, devastating blows against the British. Cutting through the Swamp Fox legend, Robert D. Bass has arrived at a realistic and fascinating appraisal of this military genius with this 1959 literary work. “[A] close but spirited chronology of the raids and routs [General Francis Marion] led against the British. A humane man, a dedicated soldier with a devotion to duty and a worship of liberty, [he] was also a taciturn, moody and introverted character. With an intuitive sense of strategy, particularly that of the swift advance and the rapid retreat, he became a sound and savage fighter [...] rose from the ranks as an unknown captain to become a Brigadier General. Here, bivouac by bivouac, are the lashes and the sieges in which he engaged; the daring rescue of 150 Rebel prisoners from Sumter’s house; the bedevilment and the destruction of the British is small diversionary actions; and the indefatigable endurance of that gaunt, ill-kempt, gallant fighter who became a nemesis to Cornwallis and the entire British Army....”—Kirkus Review

This book was released on 2017-03-26 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One thousand seven hundred and thirty-two was a glorious year for America. It gave birth to two of the noblest thunderbolts of her wars, George Washington and Francis Marion. The latter was born in St. John's parish, South Carolina. His father also was a Carolinian, but his grandfather was a Huguenot or French Protestant, who lived near Rochelle, in the blind and bigoted days of Louis XIV. The priests, who are the persecutors in all countries except America, could not bear that he should worship God in his own way, or dream of going to heaven but in their leading strings, and therefore soon gave him to understand, that he must either "recant or trot"; that is, quit his heresy or his country.
