To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The autumn of 1780 found the British in posses- sion of most of the southern states. Charleston had fallen, South Carolina had been overrun, Virginia was threatened ; and the victorious Gates, advancing to the succor of the patriots, had been totally destroyed at Camden. But the savage policy adopted by Cornwallis to secure his conquest was ultimately the cause of his ruin. He issued a pro- clamation, sequestering the estates of all those, not included in the capitulation of Charleston, who wer...e in the service or acting under the authority of Congress, and of all others who, by an open 12 252 DAKING DEEDS avowal of liberal principles, or other notorious acts, should show a leaning to the colonial authori- ties. At this juncture Marion appeared ; the militia flocked to his standard ; and the success of the partisan war carried on by him and Sumpter raised the drooping spirits of the whigs. The appointment of Greene to the command of the southern army, and the brilliant affair at the Cowpens, still further exalted their hopes ; so that even the check at Guilford Court-House failed to dishearten them.
