In describing Daniel Morgan many words come to mind: ambitious, pugnacious, enterprising, cantankerous (but affable!) – and specifically in the context of the American War for Independence one could assign the qualities of endurance and genius.

This untutored son of the frontier was the only general in the American Revolution, on either side, to produce a significant original tactical thought - his brilliant disposition at Cowpens of Militia, Continental Regulars, and Light Cavalry arranged perfectly to terrain and the prejudices of his enemy. Seldom has a battle, in which greater numbers were not engaged, been so important in its consequences as that of the Battle of Cowpens; Cowpens leads to Guilford Courthouse, Guilford Courthouse leads to Yorktown – and Yorktown leads to victory in the War for Independence.
