Edwin Bearss does a masterful job of describing the Battle of Cowpens. In a couple of weeks an old friend and I, both of us retired military will be walking the battlefield. Both of us grew up only a few miles from the site. Bearss' book will assist us in locating the exact place of different parts of the battle and in understanding what happened. He is quite clear in his description of events. The only thing I don't like about the book is the maps are so small one can only read them with difficulty but then, the book only has so much space.
