George Armstrong Custer. The name evokes instant recognition
among Americans and people around the world. No figure in the
history of the American West has more powerfully moved the human
imagination. This new, lavishly illustrated book combines over 300
photographs and paintings, many in color, with a revised edition of
Robert M. Utley's classic biography, "Cavalier in Buckskin."
Drawing on twelve years of additional research on Sitting Bull
and the Battle of the Little Bighorn, Utley has dramatically
changed his original interpretations of Custer's Last Stand in this
revised edition, and has brought the reference list completely up
to date for the benefit of students, scholars, and western history
buffs.
Bringing to life vivid images of the western military frontier,
Custer presents George Armstrong Custer, the man and the legend,
and illuminates the challenges he faced in warfare with the Indians
of the Great Plains.
