Description
The character and competence of the main US Army actors in the book are examined as to their performance when faced with a new foe and combat conditions in a geographic area that their prior experience in the Civil War did not prepare them for.
US Army tactics, equipment and logistics are detailed as are Indian warfare techniques, all within the context of combat—both skirmishes and battles. Drawing on firsthand accounts, this is a fresh exploration of this crucial period in Custer’s life and the evolution of the U.S. Army.
