Virtual Lecture – The Soldiers of the Maryland 400 at the Battle of Camden and Beyond
Virtual Event Talbot County, Maryland
Owen Lourie, historian
Battle of Camden
“They have done all that can be expected of them.”
Join historian Owen Lourie to discover the lives and legacy of the Maryland Line, which bore heavy casualties at the Battle of Camden and throughout the Southern Campaign (1780-1783). Many of these Maryland soldiers were experienced veterans who enlisted in the earliest days of the war. They had endured tremendous hardship even before they undertook the 1,000-mile march to South Carolina. Drawing on extensive biographical research, this talk explores what became of the Marylanders in the Battle of Camden and afterward.
