Nephew to Sitting Bull, chief of the Sioux, Pte San Hunka (White
Bull) was a famous warrior in his own right. He had been on the
warpath against whites and other Indians for more than a decade
when he fought the greatest battle of his life.
On the afternoon of June 25, 1876, five troops of the U. S. Seventh
Cavalry under the command of George Armstrong Custer rode into the
valley of the Little Big Horn River, confidently expecting to rout
the Indian encampments there. Instead, the cavalry met the gathered
strength of Sioux and Cheyenne warriors, who did not run as
expected but turned the battle toward the soldiers. White Bull
charged again and again, fighting until the last soldier was dead.
The battle was Custer's Last Stand, and White Bull was later
referred to as the warrior who killed Custer.
In 1932 White Bull related his life story to Stanley Vestal, who
corroborated the details, from other sources and prepared this
biography. "All that I told him is straight and true," said White
Bull. His story is a matchless account of the life of an Indian
warrior.
