The story of General Nathanael Greene's campaigns with the Army of the South during the Revolutionary War is exciting reading for anyone gripped by the emergencies that dog a makeshift, guerilla warfare. Greene's early life is well portrayed too. Convincing accounts are given of his decision to go against his Quaker faith to be a patriot, as well as his magnanimity and the hard won tactical skill that made his choice as the man to help Francis Marion an excellent one.
