The Campaign for the South: The Swamp Fox: The Battles of Kings Mountain and Cowpens

Part One: Francis Marion had two main objectives in 1780 and 1781…The first was to keep a viable military presence opposing the Royal troops and the Loyalists in the South.

How did the personalities of the military leaders on both sides, shape the events which turned so gruesome and so decisive?
