HOWES H-650, "General Horry furnished the facts, Parson Weems the rhetoric; so much of it that Horry became indignant and disclaimed all connection with the book. Unabashed, Weems continued its publication through many editions." A later edition of the biography of Francis "Swamp Fox" Marion, compiled from information supplied by Gen. Peter Horry and written by the famed parson Mason Weems. Marion was a hero of the Revolution, and it was largely due to his actions and strategy that the turning point was reached in the South.
