In his new book This Fierce People: The Untold Story of America’s Revolutionary War in the South, Alan Pell Crawford brings to life the three years between Monmouth and Yorktown. A brutal war in the South—a true civil war—set the stage for the victory at Yorktown, and here, Crawford argues, the War for Independence was won. What happened between 1778 and 1781 as the war shifted to the southern theater? Who were the “unsung patriots” that inevitably set the stage for Yorktown? The distinguished journalist and author Alan Pell Crawford joins to discuss This Fierce People and his research on the Revolution in the South.
