Another Great Ballad Novel

I loved this story. It was so well crafted and had characters who were easy to identify with. Sharyn McCrumb is a master of historical fiction based on real legends and stories.

Memorable tale about an important historic event

This is another story from Sharon McCrum. I have really liked all of her books ( except Bimbos of the Death Sun). She does a great job explaining the happenings on the ground & thoughts of the people in this moment of history..

A Very Good Read

I found this book when I was researching my family and discovered that my 5X Great Grandfather was Col. Frederick Hambright and fought on King's Mountain. He didn't come into the story until near the end, but the story was thought provoking and I felt very realistic for that time and location. I enjoyed it very much and will encourage other family members to read it.

history has the best stories

I live about 15 minutes from Kings Mtn Battlefield, visited many times. I'm proud of my and our ancestors who took the fight to Ferguson!
