Cowpens: America's 'Most Perfect' Battle

The Forgotten Turning Point of the Revolution - Battle of the Cowpens
in 1781, the American revolution was on its final legs. The British had won three massive successive victories in the Southern theater and now had half the country firmly under their control. In desperation, the American Congress turned to George Washington. They asked him to appoint a general to raise a new army, had south, and launch one last desperate attempt to rescue the South. Washington appointed General Greene to take his army and go save the South. Greene reached South Carolina and boldly divided his army in two, leaving Daniel Morgan in command of the a large contingent of militia men. Morgan would lead Tarleton into a unique area known as the Cowpens, where he would execute a daring and cunning strategy, hoping to reignite a spark of hope for the Southern Theater.

"Old Morgan Was Never Beaten!": The Battle of Cowpens, U.S. Army Museum
On Jan. 17, 1781, in the chilly backcountry of South Carolina, a hard-pressed, poorly equipped American force of 1,000 Continental Soldiers and militiamen stood waiting in the predawn darkness for an enemy attack they were sure would come by first light. Led by Brig. Gen. Daniel Morgan, the footsore Americans had been on the march for days by the time they stopped several miles south of the Broad River to make a stand against their onrushing pursuers. Out of the darkness, a mixed British force of 1,100 cavalry, infantry, and artillery led by the young, notorious Lt. Col. Banastre Tarleton attacked Morgan's men head on.

General Daniel Morgan’s battle plan at Cowpens was considered a masterpiece of military strategy and tactics. In Fall of 1780, General Nathaniel Greene sent a portion of his men under Morgan to fight the British in western South Carolina. In response, Lieutenant Colonel Banastre Tarleton was sent to chase after Morgan's army. Tarleton met Morgan's men on January 17, 1781 at the Battle of Cowpens.

Washington would go on to pursue and even wound Tarleton, but would ultimately fail to catch him.
Some sources have the cavalry charging on the other flank of the US army, but based on the retreating path of the troops, I believed it more likely that the cavalry would be able to cross to the other side of the line, rather than the scattered militia.

General Daniel Morgan’s battle plan at Cowpens was considered a masterpiece of military strategy and tactics. In Fall of 1780, General Nathaniel Greene sent a portion of his men under Morgan to fight the British in western South Carolina.
In response, Lieutenant Colonel Banastre Tarleton was sent to chase after Morgan's army. Tarleton met Morgan's men on January 17, 1781 at the Battle of Cowpens.
Morgan learned a lot from the mistakes of Waxhaws and Camden. Because he understood his troops’ capabilities and the landscape of the battlefield, he was able to layout a plan that would change the entire plan of the Southern Campaign.

This video is an enhanced, updated version from the previous Cowpens video. Since YouTube does not allow one-for-one replacement, when updating the video I had to create a completely new URL. Video description is the same: The January 1781 American defeat of the British at Cowpens, South Carolina is one of the most ingeniously scripted displays of tactical genius, ever, by an American commander. Some historians call it “the most perfect battle fought in the Americas.” The American commander, Brigadier General Daniel Morgan, a self-taught frontiersman, outwitted, and his forces outfought, the well-trained British regulars, finishing the battle with a military maneuver history rarely sees: a double envelopment. The battle served as inspiration for the final battle of Mel Gibson’s 2000 film “The Patriot.” Cowpens was a turning point in the war, the British surrendered ten months later. This video takes you to the war and shows you the battle.

in 1781, the American revolution was on its final legs. The British had won three massive successive victories in the Southern theater and now had half the country firmly under their control.
In desperation, the American Congress turned to George Washington. They asked him to appoint a general to raise a new army, had south, and launch one last desperate attempt to rescue the South.
Washington appointed General Greene to take his army and go save the South. Greene reached South Carolina and boldly divided his army in two, leaving Daniel Morgan in command of the a large contingent of militia men.
Morgan would lead Tarleton into a unique area known as the Cowpens, where he would execute a daring and cunning strategy, hoping to reignite a spark of hope for the Southern Theater.

On Jan. 17, 1781, in the chilly backcountry of South Carolina, a hard-pressed, poorly equipped American force of 1,000 Continental Soldiers and militiamen stood waiting in the predawn darkness for an enemy attack they were sure would come by first light.
Led by Brig. Gen. Daniel Morgan, the footsore Americans had been on the march for days by the time they stopped several miles south of the Broad River to make a stand against their onrushing pursuers. Out of the darkness, a mixed British force of 1,100 cavalry, infantry, and artillery led by the young, notorious Lt. Col. Banastre Tarleton attacked Morgan's men head on. What followed in the open fields called the Cowpens was one of the most remarkable victories won by a Patriot army during the Revolutionary War.
Join the National Army Museum's educator Dr. John Maass for a discussion of Morgan's salient victory in the South, and a look at maps and images of the Battle of Cowpens and the campaign that led to a significant British defeat on the road to ultimate victory for the cause of liberty and independence.
John Maass received a B.A. in History from Washington and Lee University and a Ph.D. in Early American History from the Ohio State University. He is the author of several books and numerous articles on American military history, including "The Battle of Guilford Courthouse: A Most Desperate Engagement" (2020); "George Washington's Virginia" (2017); and "The Petersburg and Appomattox Campaigns, 1864-1865" (2015).

General Daniel Morgan’s battle plan at Cowpens was considered a masterpiece of military strategy and tactics. In Fall of 1780, General Nathaniel Greene sent a portion of his men under Morgan to fight the British in western South Carolina.
In response, Lieutenant Colonel Banastre Tarleton was sent to chase after Morgan's army. Tarleton met Morgan's men on January 17, 1781 at the Battle of Cowpens.
Morgan learned a lot from the mistakes of Waxhaws and Camden. Because he understood his troops’ capabilities and the landscape of the battlefield, he was able to layout a plan that would change the entire plan of the Southern Campaign.

The Battle of Cowpens was a pivotal engagement during the American Revolution, fought on January 17, 1781, near present-day Chesnee, South Carolina. The Continental Army, commanded by Brigadier General Daniel Morgan, defeated a larger British force under Lieutenant Colonel Banastre Tarleton. The American victory boosted morale and convinced many Southern civilians to join the Patriot cause. The battle also had important strategic implications, as the loss of British troops and supplies was a severe blow to the British Southern campaign. The Battle of Cowpens demonstrated the importance of effective tactics, training, and leadership in determining the outcome of battles.
