About this title

Synopsis

Portrait of a General, George Armstrong and the Battle of Little Big Horn is not a biography of Custer but rather a positive study of him. It deals with his early life, his outstanding Civil War record, his years on the Western Plains and finally the Battle of Little Big Horn where he and five companies of the United States Cavalry lost their lives in a mystery shrouded battle with Indians of the Western Plains. The book contains testimony on behalf of Custer from both his enemies and friends and thirty one photos, some rare.
