Smith, StevenTHE REVOLUTIONARY WAR IN SOUTH CAROLINA: Profiles in Leadership An examination of the panorama of individuals whose leadership helped make the Patriot cause successful in South Carolina -- Henry Laurens was the President of the Council of Safety, Richard Furman was the pastor of a church, John Rutledge was the Governor of South Carolina, and Rebecca Motte was a plantation owner. William Moultrie and Andrew Pickens-perhaps most familiar as soldiers-are discussed in their non-combatant roles: Moultrie as a prisoner of war and Pickens as a post-war civic leader. Military leaders William Jasper, Thomas Sumter, Francis Marion, Isaac Shelby, Nathanael Greene, Daniel Morgan, Tadeusz Kosciuszko, Hezekiah Maham, and Henry Lee round out the selection of profiles. Each entry is preceded by a historical overview of the Southern Campaign and the Revolutionary War in South Carolina in order to provide the reader the background necessary to understand the leadership profiles in context. The book's conclusion highlights that the Revolutionary War was a landmark in the democratization of war, and that the choices made by these leaders and their followers reflect the same element of choice inherent in the democratic process.
