Philbrick
At turns compelling and stuffed with useless facts, Philbrick explores the epic imagery and facts of Custer’s fateful battle on the Little Big Horn river. I was much more interested in the Amer-Indian histories than the military rivalries and infighting, but both are well documented. I think Philbrick’s proposed reconstruction of the demise of Custer’s command is plausible. Found Sitting Bull a much better man and leader than Custer. Pretty good book.
