Book review - "The Last Stand: Custer, Sitting Bull, and the Battle of the Little Bighorn' by Nathaniel Philbrick (2010)

Well done account of the Battle of Little Big Horn, which has the difficult job of trudging through so many myths and agendas and lack of verifiable historical resources. It helps that it is focused on the one event but there's a lot to incorporate - the character of Custer but also Sitting Bull and other Indians, the vicious politicking and bitchiness among the soldiers, the politics in Washington. It's handled very well in this book. I think I still prefer Flashman and the Redskins.
