Synopsis

A highly illustrated account of the greatest, and the last, victory of the Native Americans over the United States military.

The death of George Armstrong Custer, and over half of his 7th Cavalry Regiment in the valley of the Little Big Horn on 25 June 1876, has become the most celebrated battle of the Indian wars. This illustrated volume outlines how, disobeying orders, Custer followed a trail to a large encampment of Indians. Without determining the numbers he faced split his command into three groups and attacked. In the resulting chaos Custer and more than half the troops under his command were killed.

US Army officer Peter Panzeri describes the battle from its origins to its conclusion in a concise, yet detailed format.
