He had reached a simple but shocking conclusion: the troops at Little Bighorn with Custer had panicked, and most of them had committed suicide! One hundred years after the event, this curious, fascinating book appears. Western Americana, American History, U. S. History, United States History, Americana, U.S.-iana, Custer, Battle of Little Bighorn. yslic. …
