South in the Revolution, 1763 to 1789

Many books have been written about the South, and many concerning the American Revolution, but this volume is the first to be devoted to the South during the era of the Revolution. It begins with the Peace of Paris of 1763 and ends with the establishment of the Federal government under the Constitution, these being the traditional limits of the Revolutionary time.
