Looking for books about the Rev War in the southern theater.
« on: September 08, 2020, 05:49:54 AM »
Hi all,
As the title says, I am looking for books about the American Revolutionary War in the southern States(Virginia, Maryland...etc.
I am also looking for decent books about different units that fought in the conflict. Be they Continentals, Regulars, loyelists, militia.. etc

"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

True for the Cause of Liberty: The Second Spartan Regiment in the American Revolution, Oscar & Catherine Gilbert.  Following lots of personal records, this paints a picture of what was largely a brutal civil war.

The Southern Strategy is a good read. OOBs included too.

The Road to Guilford Courthouse.
And the glorious general led the advance
With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss
