One of the key engagements of the American Revolution was fought October 7, 1780 in South Carolina at the Battle Of King's Mountain, when a group of backwoodsmen (including DAVY CROCKETTs father, JOHN CROCKETT) held off an army of trained British soldiers and Tory Americans, until the British and Tories were forced to surrender.  After so many defeats of the Southern patriot armies, this battle changed the British evaluation of the determination and military ability of the Patriot forces; and Lord Cornwallis, the leader of the British Army in the southern states, was forced to retreat further into South Carolina, where he met further defeats by the American forces, finally leading to the surrender of the British army, the end of the American Revolution, and the rise of the United States of America as a force with which to be reckoned.
