In this segment, John Slaughter discusses the growing appreciation of smaller battles and skirmishes throughout the American Revolution. Smaller engagements such as these had just as much of an impact on the war, like the bigger more significant battles. Slaughter then segues to talking about the humiliating defeat of the British at the Battle of Cowpens, and the Battle of Kings Mountain.

 

The Battle of Cowpens is known as one of the great classic battles in military history.
