Kings Mountain: An Unconventional Battle of the Revolutionary War

For those who may struggle to connect with the American Revolution because of the tactics that were used, the Battle of Kings Mountain is one that demands your attention. This is a battle that is unlike any other in the American Revolution. Not only are the tactics different, but so is the makeup of the combatants. This is battle that might even be considered as a civil war before the Civil War. As a bonus for me, it's one where of my ancestors fought.
