Banastre Tarleton was the most hated and vilified officer of the British Army during the American Revolutionary War. Scotti provides insight to the man who was the most aggressive and effective Dragoon commander in Cornwallis's Army. Rumors spread among the countryside of excessive brutality and lack of compassion for wounded prisoners. These stories were amplified in the movie "The Patriot". Using official records and years of study into the man, Scotti paints a different picture of an officer both hated and admired by both sides of the conflict..

The author focuses on two areas where Tarleton and his men have received the most condemnation: the lack of discipline and the use of terror, and concludes with a summary of the Tarleton's postwar career and a judgment on the myth and reality of Tarleton and his unit.
