Since the shocking news first broke in 1876 of the Seventh
Cavalry's disastrous defeat at the Little Big Horn, fascination
with the battle--and with Lieutenant George Armstrong Custer--has
never ceased. Widespread interest in the subject has spawned a vast
outpouring of literature, which only increases with time. This
two-volume bibliography of Custer literature is the first to be
published in some twenty-five years and the most complete ever
assembled.
Drawing on years of research, Michael O'Keefe has compiled entries
for roughly 3,000 books and 7,000 articles and pamphlets. Covering
both nonfiction and fiction (but not juvenile literature), the
bibliography focuses on events beginning with Custer's tenure at
West Point during the 1850s and ending with the massacre at Wounded
Knee in 1890. Included within this span are Custer's experiences in
the Civil War and in Texas, the 1873 Yellowstone and 1874 Black
Hills expeditions, the Great Sioux War of 1876-77, and the Seventh
Cavalry's pursuit of the Nez Perces in 1877.
The literature on Custer, the Battle of the Little Big Horn, and
the Seventh Cavalry touches the entire American saga of
exploration, conflict, and settlement in the West, including
virtually all Plains Indian tribes, the frontier army, railroading,
mining, and trading. Hence this bibliography will be a valuable
resource for a broad audience of historians, librarians,
collectors, and Custer enthusiasts.
