2.A Terrible Glory: Custer and the Little Bighorn - the Last Great Battle of the American WestA Terrible Glory: Custer and the Little Bighorn - the Last Great Battle of the American West
from Little, Brown and Company
Price: $17.81

Customer Review:

Also from my extensive research, the author's description of the characters involved was very misleading and inaccurate. For instance, Capt. Benteen knew the difference between a lousy commander and a good one,... more info

There are a hosts of books that purport to prove that there was a conspiracy at the root of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.

I was enthralled by this tour around America during such a critical period of development. McDougall is a respected, decorated academic historian and brings this professional authority to the pages.
