Had Custer prevailed at the Little Bighorn, the victory would have been noteworthy at the moment, worthy of a few newspaper headlines, but only a few among the many battles with the Plains Indians. In defeat, however tactically inconsequential in the larger conflict, Custer became legend. In Inventing Custer, Edward Caudill and Paul Ashdown bridge the gap between the Custer who truly existed and the one we've immortalized and mythologized into legend in our generally accepted reading of American history 410 0$aAmerican crisis series. 606 $aGenerals$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aIndians of North America$xWars$zWest (U.S.) 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yCivil War, 1861-1865$vBiography 615 0$aGenerals 615 0$aIndians of North America$xWars 676 $a973.8/2092 700 $aCaudill$b Edward$01489622 702 $aAshdown$b Paul$f1944- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797426403321 996 $aInventing Custer$93802679 997 $aUNINA
