On the late afternoon of June 25, 1876, high atop a Montana Hill, George Armstrong Custer with pearl handled revolvers blazing, stood with the last of his brave staff fighting the overwhelming numbers of fierce, blood-thirsty encircling Sioux warriors. They died to the last man.
For many years almost every bar in Montana displayed a beautiful painting of these heroic men dying nobly under overwhelming odds. This picture carried the glory of Custer's name and the staunch bravery of his Seventh Cavalry down through the century. It fired the American nation with a sense of great pride and inspiration over the years.
But in reality, this scene never happened that way.
After years of research, historian Harry Combs has put together the most exciting, perhaps controversial, chronicle of what really happened on that fateful hot afternoon at the Little Big Horn. Read the truth of this amazing legend in Where Was Custer?
