Book: The Life Of General Francis Marion: A Celebrated Partisan Officer In The Revolutionary War, Against The British And Tories In South Carolina And Georg This compelling biography covers the life of patriot Francis "The Swamp Fox" Marion and his role in the American Revolutionary War as a partisan leader against the Tories.
This biography, first published in 1824, was written by Peter Horry who served in Marion's brigade as one of his most trusted officers during his guerilla campaigns. Horry gave his manuscript to Parson Weems who fictionalized the account into a romantic biography. Weems and Horry together tell a tale of the man whose real life was as exciting as any adventure story.
