From the Dust Jacket, “Shortly before his death last year Kenneth Roberts received a special Pulitzer citation for his historical writing. Here is his brilliantly conceived account of how 900 ill-fed, ill-clothed sharpshooters led by young Daniel Morgan routed Banastre Carleton’s superbly trained, splendidly equipped British regulars.”
