1-250840

Details the conflict between Nathanael Greene and Charles Cornwallis during the winter of 1780-81, and how the American narrowly escaped the British. With a background section on the Southern theater in 1780, and a summary outlining the lives and careers of its important officers, this is a carefully documented account of this chapter of American history. Showcases the incredible dramatics of the American Revolution's 'Great Escape,' but also provides a compelling look at the psychological and intellectual distinctions between its two great generals, Greene and Cornwallis. Contains 24 illustrations.
