Description
Elizabeth Bacon Custer outlived her husband by fifty-seven years and spent them defending him. She had married a man made a general at twenty-three, followed him to the plains, and was widowed at thirty-four by a defeat that the army spent decades explaining. Her three books did more than any official account to fix Custer in American memory as the golden cavalryman.This one, arranged from those books for young readers, is the shortest way to see how that image was built — and it comes with the battle of the Little Big Horn told at the end, by the person with the least possible distance from it. Read as history it needs every caution; read as a document of how a nation decided what to remember, it is exact.This is a faithful print-on-demand facsimile of the 1901 New York edition, reproduced in full from a library copy. The historical text is reproduced without modification; only the format, margins and legibility have been reset for modern printing.
