Born into a Quaker family, Nathanael Greene had nothing in his background that pointed to a military career. Yet at age thirty-two Greene became the youngest general in the Continental Army and the only general who had never held a military commission. With his understanding of unconventional warfare, Greene played a significant role in undoing Great Britain's power in North America.
