Charlotte, North Carolina, played an important role in the American Revolution, 1775-1783. This book covers four months, September-December 1780 when Lieutenant General Charles Earl Cornwallis led the British Army into Charlotte, fought a battle to capture it, occupied it for 16 days, and then retreated due to the nearby battle of Kings Mountain and the extremely rebellious citizens of Mecklenburg County. It also covers how, after Cornwallis's retreat, the American militiamen and the Southern Continental Army established the forward base at Camp New Providence and continued to harass the British.
This book quotes numerous original sources that reveal the actual thinking and planning of key commanders on both sides. It also identifies many historical sites associated with Cornwallis and the rebellious Americans that can be visited today.
