"A highly detailed narrative of the movements preceding the battle and of the bloody conflict on that bitter Wednesday morning, January 17, 1781. ... The battle was decisive in that it heartened the Patriots and cast a pall of gloom over the British army and their Tory sympathizers."-- From the cover.
