Peter Francisco was a giant among patriots—literally and legend. Standing nearly seven feet tall with strength that bordered on myth, he was the Revolution’s one-man army, feared by the British and revered by his fellow soldiers. At the Battle of Camden, he lifted a cannon weighing over 1,000 pounds; at Guilford Courthouse, he cut down eleven men single-handedly. Found abandoned as a child and raised in Virginia, Francisco carved his place in history with grit, muscle, and an iron will. He was the Revolution’s unstoppable force—a living legend who turned every battlefield into a tale of raw American power.
