Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

GEORGE ARMSTRONG CUSTER (1839-1876), a United States Army officer and cavalry commander in the American Civil War and the American Indian Wars, was possibly the most notorious Indian fighter the army had known. Already famous during his life, he died leading his troops to annihilation in the Battle of the Little Big Horn in 1876.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This is the personal narrative of the most famous cavalry leader America ever produced.

Custer's solid claim to military fame rests upon his achievements in the Civil War, yet paradoxically he is chiefly remembered by reason of his death in the Battle of Little Big Horn in June 1876-- "Custer's Last Stand".

Much controversy still rages over Custer's career and character. Custer was an exceedingly complex man who, in life, won devoted friends and admirers as well as outspokenly bitter enemies.

This book, representing the major part of Custer's life, was first published some two years before the General's Death. It is a vivid picture of the American West, the rigors of life for the settlers, and the horrors of indian warfare.

Custer, in this intensely personal account, made a major contribution to american history.
