Description
1890 CUSTER 1ed Following the Guidon Last Stand Little Big Horn Native American



A first edition of Elizabeth Custers Following the Guidon. She wrote this book in an attempt to create a legacy for her husband, General George Custer. She succeeded. In fact, she is without a doubt the most important force in creating a sense of legend around her late husband. She turned him into a Western hero and martyr, which slightly differs from the truth in his military failures, mainly at the Battle of Little Big Horn.



This work includes a description of the march into Indian Territory, dealing with scouts, the Battle of the Washita, Indian prisoners and trials, hunting records, army housekeeping, Indian captivity of white women, and more!
