Prelude to Yorktown: The Southern Campaign of Nathanael Greene, 1780-1781 (Enduring Editions)

In this stirring history, the whole campaign of 1780-81 is followed from Camden, through the battle of the Cowpens and King's Mountain and the many skirmishes on the fox-chase to the Dan, to the decisive battle at Guilford. The men who fought this campaign come alive through their letters, reports, and diaries. This is the American Revolution as it was fought by living men.
