Abstract
This book, edited by A. S. Salley, explains how Colonel Hill sought to correct major historical inaccuracies, especially about the Battle of Kings Mountain, by providing a firsthand account of events in South Carolina during the Revolutionary War. It also details the manuscript’s history, preservation, and transmission, showing how Hill’s narrative was verified and passed down before reaching publication.
