Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Master of the Strong Hearts a Story of Custer´s Last Rally Not since Nolan gave the word that made the charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava a glorious and deathless blunder has so notable an unnecessary slaughter of gallant men found place on the records of heroism as that of Custer´s last rally in the valley of the Little Big Horn. Ambuscades have been a feature of every American war from the days of Braddock on the Monongahela to the entrapment of the Rough Riders at La Quasina; but Custer´s defeat was more than an ambuscade; it was the culmination of Indian strategy and generalship designed by one who was himself no war-chief, and who proved himself neither hero nor warrior, - Sitting Bull, the medicine-chief of the Uncapapa Sioux, the crafty Master of the Strong Hearts. It is to tell, in story-fashion; but as correctly as the sifted reports and records of both sides render possible, the real tale of Custer´s last rally and heroic death, that this book has been written.
