Excerpt from The Hero of Cowpens: A Centennial Sketch The authoress has to regret that her limited access to Revolutionary correspondence, has left her argument less exhaustive than she could desire. The point sought to be established is, that Benedict Arnold performed no essential or valuable service during our Revolutionary struggle; that he appropriated the laurels fairly won by Daniel Morgan, and has worn them for a hundred years. For facts personal to Arnold she has relied mainly upon Sparks' Life of Arnold; for the same for General Morgan she is indebted to Graham's Life of Morgan (See page v.) For general historical conclusions, after consulting all our standard authorities and sometimes reading between the lines, she has been careful not to wander far from Bancroft's version. If she have set her hero in a somewhat poetic light, her "offence hath this extent - no more." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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.
