Synopsis
Defeat and death at the Little Bighorn gave General George Custer and his Seventh Cavalry a kind of immortality. In *Custer's Last Stand*, Brian W. Dippie investigates the body of legend surrounding that battle on a bloody Sunday in 1876. His survey of the event in poems, novels, paintings, movies, jokes, and other ephemera amounts to a unique reflection on the national character.
