  • On the Border with Crook

  • An Autobiography of General Custer

    Edited by Stephen Brennan ...
    Taken from George Armstrong Custer's own writings, An Autobiography of General Custer is the “true story” of one of the most praised, most despised, but surely most remembered American military heroes. Indeed, few figures in our history were—in their own time, as well as in our own—so wildly cheered and so roundly hated.Custer’s narration takes us from just after the Civil War, when, having gained ...
