Custer's Last Stand remains iconic in American history. Had Custer prevailed at the Little Bighorn, the victory may have been one among many, while in defeat, he became legend. In Inventing Custer, Caudill and Ashdown bridge the gap between the true Custer and the one immortalized into legend in our generally accepted reading of American history.
