Frederick William Benteen (1834-98) was a military officer during
the Civil War and the Black Hills War against the Lakotas and the
Northern Cheyennes. He was in command of a battalion at the Battle
of Little Bighorn, and some say that his controversial actions
during the battle may have contributed to Custer's disastrous
defeat.
In "Harvest of Barren Regrets," Charles K. Mills explores Benteen's
complex personality and life as a career army man during one of the
most violent and compelling periods in U.S. military history. He
views Benteen as misjudged by history, a man forced to shoulder
much of the blame for events far beyond his influence or control.
As Mills says at the end of this wonderful biography, "There are no
monuments to Frederick William Benteen today. He remains as he
lived: a rather obscure supporting actor who appeared briefly on
center stage in a well-known American history drama and then
quietly faded away. It was his misfortune to live largely unknown
and to die largely misunderstood."
