The History of the Revolution of South Carolina…

David Ramsay, a Pennsylvania-born, Princeton-educated, Charleston, South Carolina, physician, believed that “the revolution of the governments of American, from British provinces into independent states, exhibited many useful lessons, both to princes and people.” Ramsay’s two-volume account of the conflict is one of the earliest histories of the American Revolution and includes a number of maps and plans detailing the conflict in the Palmetto State.
