The Battle of Musgrove's Mill, 1780 - Small Battles

John Buchanan

The Battle of Musgrove's Mill was fought on August 19, 1780, near a ford along the Enoree River, South Carolina, between Tory and Rebel militia. The battle is distinctive for two reasons: it led directly to the Battle of King's Mountain, which was the turning point of the war in the South; and instead of one leader the Rebel force was led by a joint command of three colonels, yet there was no dispute over tactics or other matters.

Small Battles: Military History as Local History
Mark Edward Lender and James Kirby Martin, Series Editors
Small Battles offers a fresh and important new perspective on the story of America's early conflicts. It was the small battles, not the clash of major armies, that truly defined the fighting during the colonial wars, the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and the hostilities on the frontiers. This is dramatic military history as seen through the prism of local history--history with a depth of detail, a feeling for place, people, and the impact of battle and its consequences that the story of major battles often cannot convey. The Small Battles series focuses on America's military conflicts at their most intimate and revealing level.
