And few military leaders strike as memorable a figure as the young General Custer – handsome, his long blond hair flowing, destined for national greatness. In this Bicentennial year, it might be worthwhile to look at that time, not through historian’s hindsight, but through the eyes of Custer himself. This is what it was like, told by one of the most famous military men in American history.’ (from rear wrap)
