I was looking for Blount's involvement in the creation of the independent state of Franklin. Any clue where I might find something about that? DBritt
[edit] Possible Copyright Violation
I see lots of similarities to here: http://www.army.mil/cmh-pg/books/RevWar/ss/blount.htm
Someone should look into this as I'm not quite versed in the wikiquette of how to investigate this.
- See Wikipedia:Copyright. We have the {{copyvio}} template for dealing with copyright violations. However, in this case, a .mil domain indicates the US government, and works of the US government would normally be public domain.
- In fact, the link you give above is also given within the article, as one of the references. -- Curps 17:32, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Strange sentence?
This sentence seems odd to me: "This second defeat in the South, the result of inadequate preparations, provided the young Blount a lesson that would stand him in good stead in later years". I added a fact tag, but it doesn't show any examples of how it was useful for him. --Awiseman 15:20, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
