Rawdon's Attack Route
Landmark
The general route Rawdon's force took from Camden north to strike the American position at Hobkirk's Hill before dawn on April 25, 1781. The pre-dawn march, based on intelligence from an American deserter, allowed Rawdon to surprise Greene before his army was fully formed.
