Description

This book is a combination of two separate books.The first book, General Henry "Light Horse" Lee of Virginia and General Thomas "Fighting Gamecock" Sumter of Stateburg, South Carolina (formerly Sumter District in the geographical center of the state) was written in the first half of the 19th century. The text and illustrations were taken from digital images of the 1859 edition of the book found in the Public Library of New York. Gen. Lee was ordered by Gen. George Washington to confront the British in the South, mainly in South Carolina during the American Revolution for Independence. Gen. Lee and Gen. Sumter collaborated to "confound" British lord Cornwallis and his subordinates-Cols. Tarlton, Rawdon, along with Major Wemyss-were the most hated British officers in the Southern colonies. They were very ruthless murderers that burned and pillaged, leaving in their wake widows and orphans homeless and with no provisions.The second book is of General Francis "Swamp Fox" Marion (from the "low country") of South Carolina. The text and illustrations were taken from digital images of the 1857 edition found at the University of ­Virginia. According to its author it was written about 30 years after the war, which would have been around 1815. Gen. Marion confronted the British in the low-lying areas of the state, mainly around Charleston, Georgetown, Pee Dee and to the middle of the state. He and his troops were a menace to Col. Tarlton, for Gen.Marion and his troops were known to attack at night, retreat and hide in the swamps, which he knew well. The author was Gen. Marion's second in command, Gen. Peter Horry.I combined these two books into this one book because these three Generals and their troops were frequently fighting together. Their names and events are mingled throughout the liberation of South­ ­Carolina and were very vital to the independence from England effort. Their efforts drove lord Cornwallis and his troops under his command out of the South and eventually causing the British defeat
