The Battle at the Broad River Rematch with Tarleton
In this rugged memoir scene General Morgan leads a small, steadfast force of militia and Continental cavalry against Tarleton’s British army. The South Carolina and Georgia militia hold, then surge, as regulars feint retreat and the center collapses, turning the dawn assault into a decisive rout with Washington, Morgan, Pickens, and Howard at the heart of the action. Old Pat and the narrator ride amid gunfire, sabers flashing, as Tarleton is pressed and finally driven from the field.
