American Revolutionary War: Battle of King’s MountainMHQ | one comment | Print This Post | Email This Post
As Washington’s Continentals closed in on land from the north and a French fleet took command of the seacoast, Greene’s ragged troops harried Cornwallis’ Redcoats through the Carolinas to surrender in Virginia, ‘the world turned upside down.’ With Cornwallis’ surrender, the rise to independence and power of thirteen jealous colonies clamoring toward nationhood was complete.

One Comment to “American Revolutionary War: Battle of King’s Mountain”
I am looking for some information about the New England army
raised in the beginning of the Revolutionary war, before
Congress instituted the Continental Army. There are a few blips
here and there on the internet, but I would like to know, when (I
think MASS formed), where did they fight and were they
eventually absorbed into the Continental army.
Thanks.
