More than 200 years ago, the British Army made its first push into the American South. The Georgian Continental Army lost to the British during the American Revolution at Brier Creek. Today, another battle is being waged over threats to the preservation of this historic 500-acre site. We talked about that history and what’s at stake with Daniel Battle of the Georgia American Revolution Preservation Alliance and Daphne Owens of the Brier Creek Project.
