| description | This book examines the role of the military in Georgia during the crucial period from 1754 to 1776, with particular attention devoted to the militia. Through in-depth research and analysis, the author finds that, despite the occasional presence of small bodies of both regulars and provincial rangers, the militia of Georgia served as the final defensive bulwark during the colonial era. After 1767, the militia companies were the only viable military units in the colony. |
