The Battle That Broke Britain’s Most Feared Commander

Banastre Tarleton became one of the most feared commanders of the American Revolution after the Waxhaws Massacre, where surrendering American soldiers were cut down in what became known as “Tarleton’s Quarter.” But just eight months later, everything changed. In this video, we explore how Daniel Morgan turned a small force of Continentals and militia into one of the greatest tactical victories in military history at the Battle of Cowpens. From Tarleton’s relentless pursuit to Morgan’s brilliant double envelopment, this is the story of the battle that shattered the British Legion—and changed the course of the Southern Campaign.
