The Battle of Cowpens was fought on January 17, 1781.  According to the park 
rangers, it is considered the turning point in the south (when I was in 
school, Battle of Kings Mountain was considered the turning point in the 
south, I'll let you decide).  Daniel Morgan and his men defeated the British 
troops, led by Banastre Tarleton.  The battle was fought in an open field, 
near today's town of Chesnee which is between Spartanburg and Gaffney.
