SUMMARY:History Lesson: The Overmountain Men
DESCRIPTION:The Overmountain Men were not professional soldiers. They were neighbors who shouldered their rifles\, crossed the mountains\, and stepped into history. Their victory at Kings Mountain didn’t just change the trajectory of a war — it proved that ordinary people\, united by conviction\, can alter the course of a nation. That legacy still echoes across these hills and rivers\, reminding us how our region shaped the course of the American Revolution. \n
