Download or read book A Devil of a Whipping written by Lawrence E. Babits and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The battle of Cowpens was a crucial turning point in the Revolutionary War in the South and stands as perhaps the finest American tactical demonstration of the entire war. On 17 January 1781, Daniel Morgan's force of Continental troops and militia routed British regulars and Loyalists under the command of Banastre Tarleton. The victory at Cowpens helped put the British army on the road to the Yorktown surrender and, ultimately, cleared the way for American independence. Here, Lawrence Babits provides a brand-new interpretation of this pivotal South Carolina battle. Whereas previous accounts relied on often inaccurate histories and a small sampling of participant narratives, Babits uses veterans' sworn pension statements, long-forgotten published accounts, and a thorough knowledge of weaponry, tactics, and the art of moving men across the landscape. He identifies where individuals were on the battlefield, when they were there, and what they saw--creating an absorbing common soldier's version of the conflict. His minute-by-minute account of the fighting explains what happened and why and, in the process, refutes much of the mythology that has clouded our picture of the battle. Babits put the events at Cowpens into a sequence that makes sense given the landscape, the drill manual, the time frame, and participants' accounts. He presents an accurate accounting of the numbers involved and the battle's length. Using veterans' statements and an analysis of wounds, he shows how actions by North Carolina militia and American cavalry affected the battle at critical times. And, by fitting together clues from a number of incomplete and disparate narratives, he answers questions the participants themselves could not, such as why South Carolina militiamen ran toward dragoons they feared and what caused the "mistaken order" on the Continental right flank.

Download or read book The First Shot written by Stanley Harris and published by . This book was released on 2009-02 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The First Shot, eleven-year-old Charles Miller goes back in time to the Battle of Lexington in 1775 after being visited by Ben Sampson, who lives in 1775 and mysteriously appears in the Miller home in Lexington. The two boys participate in the events of an eleven-hour period of great anxiety and turmoil before and during the Battle. As they wait for the confrontation with the British that will begin the American Revolution, Charles knows much of what will happen, but is bound by the Time Travel Paradox not to do anything that will change recorded history. Even so, a mistake in the way he is dressed nearly causes his true identity to be uncovered, with potentially disastrous consequences. Charles meets Ben's father, who is a Minuteman, his sister Emmy, and John Hancock, Sam Adams and Captain John Parker, all of whom he sees as real people rather than the larger-than-life characters of history books. The youngsters are also witnesses to Paul Revere's warning to the Minutemen that the Redcoats are on the march. As the Minutemen and the British soldiers face each other on Lexington Commons and the British commander calls upon the Americans to throw down their arms, a single shot is fired. The Redcoats open fire on the Minutemen, beginning the Battle and the war that will end with the creation of the United States of America. Who fired that first shot is one of the great mysteries of American history - a mystery that is solved by Charles Miller.
