Book Synopsis Custer, the Seventh Cavalry, and the Little Big Horn by : Mike O'Keefe
Download or read book Custer, the Seventh Cavalry, and the Little Big Horn written by Mike O'Keefe. This book was released on 2012-11-20. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the shocking news first broke in 1876 of the Seventh Cavalry’s disastrous defeat at the Little Big Horn, fascination with the battle—and with Lieutenant George Armstrong Custer—has never ceased. Widespread interest in the subject has spawned a vast outpouring of literature, which only increases with time. This two-volume bibliography of Custer literature is the first to be published in some twenty-five years and the most complete ever assembled. Drawing on years of research, Michael O’Keefe has compiled entries for roughly 3,000 books and 7,000 articles and pamphlets. Covering both nonfiction and fiction (but not juvenile literature), the bibliography focuses on events beginning with Custer’s tenure at West Point during the 1850s and ending with the massacre at Wounded Knee in 1890. Included within this span are Custer’s experiences in the Civil War and in Texas, the 1873 Yellowstone and 1874 Black Hills expeditions, the Great Sioux War of 1876–77, and the Seventh Cavalry’s pursuit of the Nez Perces in 1877. The literature on Custer, the Battle of the Little Big Horn, and the Seventh Cavalry touches the entire American saga of exploration, conflict, and settlement in the West, including virtually all Plains Indian tribes, the frontier army, railroading, mining, and trading. Hence this bibliography will be a valuable resource for a broad audience of historians, librarians, collectors, and Custer enthusiasts.

Book Synopsis Custer, Curley, Curtis by : Jack L. Pennington
Download or read book Custer, Curley, Curtis written by Jack L. Pennington. This book was released on 2005. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Author Jack Pennington became aware of new evidence that supports his previous views on the Battle of the Little Big Horn. Many of these views have been contrary to general accepted beliefs about this epic event. James S. Hutchins' book The papers of Edward S. Curtis relating to Custer's Last Battle, a speech by Michael Reynolds delivered to the Western Writers of America in 1975 in Billings, Montana, and a recently discovered map in which Crow Scout Curley recorded his exit from the Custer battlefield on June 25, 1876, all reinforced Pennington's rationale for writing another book on the battle. In Custer, Curley, Curtis : an expanded view of the Battle of the Little Big Horn, Jack Pennington addresses and expands upon his thesis. A critical and more extensive analysis of the Edward S. Curtis Papers, a deeper insight into the battlefield scenario, and a fresh new evaluation of the Benteen-Goldin Letters, are included as well as his timetable of the events of June 25, 1876. Also in this volume 9 of the Custer Trails Series, appendices provide previously unpublished material that supports the author's research"--Jacket.

Book Synopsis The Last Stand by : Nathaniel Philbrick
Download or read book The Last Stand written by Nathaniel Philbrick. This book was released on 2023-01-03. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An engrossing and tautly written account of a critical chapter in American history." --Los Angeles Times Nathaniel Philbrick, author of In the Hurricane's Eye, Pulitzer Prize finalist Mayflower, and Valiant Ambition, is a historian with a unique ability to bring history to life. The Last Stand is Philbrick's monumental reappraisal of the epochal clash at the Little Bighorn in 1876 that gave birth to the legend of Custer's Last Stand. Bringing a wealth of new information to his subject, as well as his characteristic literary flair, Philbrick details the collision between two American icons- George Armstrong Custer and Sitting Bull-that both parties wished to avoid, and brilliantly explains how the battle that ensued has been shaped and reshaped by national myth.
