Course Description

Between 1779 and 1782, Spanish rangers from Texas herded 10,000 cows over 500 miles to Louisiana to help feed Spanish soldiers fighting the British in the American Revolutionary War. Spain joined the war on the patriots’ side in 1779 and spent the next four years contributing a deluge of fresh soldiers, sailors, ships and cows to the war effort. University of Maryland historian Richard Bell explores this hidden history of Spain’s participation in the American Revolution.
