wigstown 's review for:

The Last Stand: Custer, Sitting Bull, and the Battle of the Little Bighorn by Nathaniel Philbrick

4.0

---

This was a quick read about a point in time I have been too quick to dismiss. The 7th cavalry was a mess of ego and drunkenness. Because of that, too many soldiers had to die. Philbrick's style is fast and furious. His notes are almost as long as his book.
