“Rev War Roundtable with ERW” Heads to South Carolina (Virtually)

Join Emerging Revolutionary War this Sunday, at 7p.m. EST on our Facebook page as we head, virtually, down to South Carolina to discuss the importance of that colony/state in the American Revolution.

Most are familiar with the larger engagements, such as Cowpens and Kings Mountain or maybe the massacre at the Waxhaws. How about the Siege of Charleston, or the battles of Ninety-Six, or the countless other engagements that made the Palmetto State (which got its nickname from this era) one of the most hotly contested areas of the entire conflict.

Joining the “Rev War Revelry” will be ERW historians Vanessa Smiley, former Chief of Interpretation and Education at the Southern Campaign of the American Revolution National Park Group, which includes Cowpens, Kings Mountain, and Ninety-Six and Bert Dunkerly, former park ranger at Kings Mountain and author of a few histories on South Carolina in the Revolutionary War topics.

We look forward to seeing you for our sojourn into the Southern Theater this Sunday. Oh, and remember to grab your favorite brew for the trip!

“Rev. War Roundtable with ERW” Continues this Sunday!

This Sunday, April 26, at 7 p.m. EST, Emerging Revolutionary War invites you to click on and listen to the next installment of our “Rev War Revelry.” This week’s happy hour will focus on the most over-looked battle or engagement from the American Revolution. Each of the historians slated to participate will bring their pick for that category.

Feel free to chime in with yours in the comments here or on the Zoom call on Sunday. The feed will be live on ERW’s Facebook page. So, grab your favorite beverage and join us for a free-flowing conversation to toast off the weekend with.
