I watched *The Partiot* last night on TV. If you have not seen it, I highly recommend it. Even though it was set in SC, you will get a great idea of how the frontier men participated in the Am. Rev. I am not a military scholar but for me, it certainly gave me some insight into how the war was actually fought.
