The Battle of Little Bighorn: A Native American Perspective The events of that fateful day in 1876 are told in a way that has never been heard before - from the voices of the Native Americans who fought in Custer's Last Stand. The story begins with the tragic killing of a young boy, setting in motion a chain of events that would lead to the worst defeat ever inflicted by Native Americans on the US military.

It is a story of courage, sacrifice, and the complex history of the US and Native American relations. This book provides a unique and powerful perspective on one of the most infamous battles in American history, shedding new light on the events that led to Custer's Last Stand.
