This book details the life, military career, and death of Colonel Edward Buncombe, who played a significant role in the American Revolutionary War, particularly as a leader of the Fifth North Carolina Continental Regiment. It provides insights into his contributions to the war effort, along with personal details and historical context surrounding his life. The narrative chronicles Colonel Buncombe’s early life, including his origins in the West Indies and subsequent move to North Carolina, where he became a notable figure in both military and social circles. An essential part of the account involves Buncombe's steadfast involvement in the Revolutionary War, highlighting his leadership during key battles such as Brandywine and Germantown. Despite being gravely wounded, his determination was evident as he continued to seek to serve and support his fellow soldiers. The book also reflects on his legacy, including the honoring of his memory through various geographical names, and the impact his life and actions had on his descendants and the community.
