The Patriot victory at Kettle Creek hekped to prevent total British control of Georgia for at least another yesr and was the only significant check of the British invasion of Georgia. The battle was the only major Patriot victory in Georgia during the Revolutionary War and is one of the best examples of what the American Revolution was all about and why the British lost. The histories of Georgia describe Kettle Creek as one of the most important battles fought in the State prior to the Civil War.
