I have just begun to read about the Battle of King's Mountain......and this is a great story. I never heard of it until I got into searching for my family. This was a great battle - and it begins to look to me it had an effect on why Cornwallis surrendered - plus a little thing like being surrounded from the land by Washington and from the sea by the French fleet, and his own fleet taking off. .... Okay, there were several factors, but it sure seems King's Mountain has to be considered. I said something to my daughter about it, she is going to be a history teacher, and she had never heard about it. That is kind of scary. Speaking of books....can anyone tell me the name of the book about the woman captured by Indians at Draper Meadows who later escaped, in her old age she told her story. I cannot remember if she was a Draper or an Ingles. this was early on frontier of VA. I read it a long time ago, would like to read it again. Does anyone know the book I am talking about? Mary
