Product Description: The author of The Journey of Crazy Horse presents a legendary battle through the eyes of the Lakota
The saga of “Custer’s Last Stand” has become ingrained in the lore of the American West, and the key players—Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, and George Armstrong Custer—have grown to larger-than-life proportions. Now, award-winning historian Joseph M. Marshall presents the revisionist view of the Battle of the Little Bighorn that has been available only in the Lakota oral tradition. Drawing on this rich source of storytelling, Marshall uncovers what really took place at the Little Big Horn and provides fresh insight into the significance of that bloody day.

I do not regret reading it, which didn't take long, or adding it to my burgeoning "Indian Wars" era collection. But, honestly, I can only describe the work as "not bad" -- in my view, it's certainly not "great" or a "must read". I hope that my less than enthusiastic ... Read More
