ALIR - A "Devil of a Whipping" - Revolutionary War in the Southern Colonies

This class uses research to dig into the animosity (even outright hatred) between colonies in the South. We'll consider Lord Cornwallis' attempts to hold Southern colonies for Great Britain. Lectures will culminate with a deep look into the battles at King's Mountain, Cowpen, Guilford Courthouse, up to York Town. Sources for this class include the book of the same name, west Point archived records, and archeological works housed at the University of North Carolina.
