Robert Hammock had a restless spirit. He grew weary of the quiet life of Colonial Virginia and left his ancestral lands in 1774 in search of a new life on the edge of civilization. He and his wife, Milly, guided their family on a adventurous overland journey to settle in the rugged, untamed Indian lands of Georgia. Frontier life suited the Hammock family. They formed new friendships and hacked a rich and fulfilling life out of Georgia woods.Then a War of Revolution swept the colonies, eventually invading their pristine backcountry. Robert and Milly chose to make a stand and fight, side by side, for their security and freedom. But that choice soon cost them their farm, their possessions, and their home. Forced to flee for their lives from revenge-hungry Tories and their British masters, Milly and her children became refugees across the mountains in Tennessee while Robert and his faithful slave, Frank, returned to Georgia to fight a guerrilla war against the British. Would Robert Hammock and the tenacious Regiment of Refugees be able to drive the British from Georgia? Would Milly ever see her beloved Robert and her distant Georgia home again? Would Frank ever know real love and family or experience true freedom?Partisans and Refugees is the heartbreaking but victorious story of an early American family torn apart by war but united by loyalty, love, and liberty.

Geoff Baggett is a small town pastor in rural Kentucky. Though his formal education and degrees are in the fields of chemistry, biology, and Christian theology, his hobbies and obsessions (according to his wife) are genealogy and Revolutionary War history. He is an active member of the Sons of the American Revolution and has discovered over twenty Patriot ancestors in his family tree from the states of Virginia, North and South Carolina, and Georgia. Geoff is an avid living historian, appearing regularly in period uniform in classrooms, reenactments, and other Revolutionary War commemorative events throughout the southeastern United States. He lives on a small piece of land in rural Trigg County, Kentucky, with his amazing wife, Kim, a daughter and grandson, and a yard full of fruit trees and perpetually hungry chickens and goats.
