George Armstrong Custer: Civil War and Western Legend

By Zachary Kent

Despite the bravery of this Union general and Indian fighter and his reputation as a near-invincible soldier, Custer and his command were wiped out by the Sioux and Cheyenne at the Battle of the Little Bighorn. Through personal stories and anecdotes, author Zachary Kent examines Custer's childhood, personal life, and the military experiences that made him one of the most famous soldiers of the Civil War, and one of the most memorable personalities in American history.
