Emerging Revolutionary War — November 2021

By Phill Greenwalt · Originally published November 2021 · p. 37

Although the battle happened in August, Emerging Revolutionary War historians Rob Orrison and Mark Wilcox traveled to Camden, South Carolina, to take pictures of the battlefield and trek routes the armies marched to that August 16, 1780, engagement. Check out Emerging Revolutionary War’s Facebook page for the photos and news about why they were in the Palmetto State. Great things on the preservation and interpretation of the battle are in the works, as well. For those looking toward colder weather, ERW invites you to sign up for the first annual bus tour, taking place November 12 through the 14, 2021, in New Jersey and covering the Trenton and Princeton campaigns. To gather more information and to sign up, check out the ERW blog at www. emergingrevolutionarywar.org. There is still some space on the bus, but seats are filling up quickly! To prepare for the bus tour a few of the upcoming “Rev War Revelry” Sunday night historian chats will focus on various personas and topics related to this campaign. Remember to tune in to ERW’s Facebook page Sunday evenings at 7 p.m. If you missed any of the previous revelries, including the last one with AmericanaCorner blog founder Tom Hand, check out our YouTube page to watch it: https:// tinyurl.com/k6s6xrjn.
