Abstract:
Rather than living up to the stereotype of the dead text, history became biography through an reenactment of the Revolutionary War’s Battle of the Alamance at the Alamance Battleground State Historical Site. Elements that made this possible were efforts undertaken by re-eanactors for historical figures ranging from well-known Governor William Tryon to an obscure camp laundress. Among the actors working behind the scenes were a local couple preparing meals for the re-enactors and an NC State librarian helping to assure accuracy of the research represented.
