Bücher von Frederic C. Wagner

Drawing on 22 years of research, this book presents an exhaustive chronology of the Great Sioux Campaign in three parts: the US Seventh Cavalry's communications, decisions and movements October 15, 1875-June 21, 1876, are traced day-by-day; the three-day prelude to the Battle of Little Bighorn hour-by-hour; and the battle itself minute-by-minute.

Major Marcus Reno's actions at the Battle of Little Big Horn have been both criticized and lauded, often without in-depth analysis. This book takes a fresh look the battle and events leading up to it, offering answers to unanswered questions.

The Battle of the Little Big Horn was the decisive engagement of the Great Sioux War of 1876-1877. In its second edition this biographical dictionary of all known participants - the 7th Cavalry, civilians and Indians - provides a brief description of the battle, as well as information on the various tribes, their customs and methods of fighting.
