Hey Pharm,
From where is that layout of King’s Mountain? I don’t think I’ve seen a print like that. I don’t think it’s Carrington’s, because he seemed to use pretty standard direct overhead views (2D) with boxes for units.
I was educated in the North and had about the same amount of ink in my public school textbooks regarding the Revolutionary War battles and strategies. It was always a mystery to me why the blood was drawn out of that war but not our Civil War, which got considerably more coverage.
In the last several years I’ve been reading books on the campaigns, leaders, and character of the Revolutionary War. It remains a mystery to me why this information is shunted aside and almost all of the *glory* goes to the guys with quill, paper, and debating skills, for founding our nation.
