"Photographer William Illingworth captured images of great quality and clarity, while at least fifteen men were recording vivid accounts in their diaries, reports and newspaper dispatches. These elements are woven together here ... to form a narrative of day-to-day life on the trail. The earlier book told the story of exploring the Black Hills; here the focus is on the plains portion of the journey, much of which can still be followed across a vast and varied landscape. [This book] also adds a new dimension, recognizing that the explorers of 1874 left yet another kind of record in things they lost or discarded along the way -- tools, weapons, cartridges and horseshoes, utensils and buttons, cans and knives. The representative artifacts in these pages further enrich our experience of the Black Hills Expedition"--Dust jacket.

This historical western was written before Custer was known as General, a time when those who knew and marched with Custer were still alive. Edwin L. Sabin tells the story of a man who was “as great in peace as in war” from the perspective of Ned Fletcher, a bugler who served under the general. From the westward expansion of Northern Pacific Railway, to Custer’s encounters with Sitting Bull and the famous Battle of the Little Bighorn, this account of Custer’s adventures is told in an engaging manner and is based upon extensive research. Sabin muses on what really happened at the Battle of Little Bighorn and weaves us a tale that seamlessly combines entertaining storytelling with factual accuracy. While there were no survivors from Custer’s Last Stand (or Battle of the Greasy Grass, as it is referred to by Native Americans), the author was able to piece out this quintessential American story from records, Mrs. Custer’s writings, and news articles from that time. With the help of the dutiful young soldier, Ned Fletcher, this story embodies what Sabin is best known for—western tales that imbue lessons in good and evil.

An officer and cavalry commander during the Civil War and Indian wars, General George Armstrong Custer (1839–76) was well-known in his lifetime for his personal daring and his aggressive approach to warfare. After his "last stand" in 1876, he was even more famous as the commander who led his entire unit to annihilation by a massive coalition of Native American tribes at the Battle of the Little Bighorn. A few years before the fatal clash, Custer published a series of reminiscences concerning his participation in the U.S. Army's 1867–69 campaigns against the Plains Indians. The evocative accounts, written during one of Custer's semiretirements rather than from the field, tell of marching, camping, furious firefights, and ruthless slaughter on both sides. In addition to its value as a document of military history, this book offers fascinating insights into the notorious general's character, from his enthusiasm for self-mythologizing to the rash behavior that led to his demise.

My Life on the Plains is the first book in the History in Words and Pictures Series, a collection of books that bring you back in time, in the words of those who were there, with visions of the world as they saw it. The History in Words and Pictures Series is a thoughtfully selected collection of historical works, edited to a modern reading experience and supplemented with archived and contemporary photography. Written by the General George Armstrong Custer, My Life on the Plains begins in the years following the Civil War when General Custer was assigned with the task of quelling Indian unrest in Kansas. The Indians had brought traffic to a standstill along the Overland Trail and the army seemed helpless to stop it. Custer embraces the challenge, yet boldly calls out the corruption in the Indian Department and the inept government policies that helped create the mess he is now charged with fixing. Custer's practice of "telling it like he sees it" creates a political conflict that follows him and perhaps contributes to his demise at the Battle of the Little Bighorn. This fascinating story allows us to experience history in the words and visions of those who made it rather than time and era biased interpretations. Other books in the History in Words and Pictures series include Following the Guidon by Custer's wife, Elizabeth.
