Custer and Little Bighorn is the first major illustrated book to examine the life of this complex figure and this equally complex battle that would forever change history. Lavishly illustrated with many rare illustrations, it’s also the first photographic history of the man and his Civil War exploits. In Custer and Little Bighorn historian Jim Donovan examines the leader’s life in full, from his childhood and days at West Point through his glorious Civil War achievements and Indian-fighting career to his death on the Little Bighorn--providing a comprehensive, authoritative look at the man and the history surrounding his final battle. Its detailed narrative examines the latest, groundbreaking research and archaeology of the most widely analyzed battle in our nations history. George Armstrong Custer’s Last Stand at the Battle of the Little Bighorn is one of the most compelling events in American history. More than 125 years later, we are still fascinated by the man and his defeat; Donovan’s Custer and Little Bighorn will add to that mystique.
