On November 27, 1868, the U.S. Seventh Cavalry under Lt. Col.
George Armstrong Custer attacked a Southern Cheyenne village along
the Washita River in present-day western Oklahoma. The subsequent
U.S. victory signaled the end of the Cheyennes' traditional way of
life and resulted in the death of Black Kettle, their most
prominent peace chief.In this remarkably balanced history, Jerome
A. Greene describes the causes, conduct, and consequences of the
event even as he addresses the multiple controversies surrounding
the conflict. As Greene explains, the engagement brought both
praise and condemnation for Custer and carried long-range
implications for his stunning defeat at the Battle of the Little
Bighorn eight years later.
