Custer: The Making of a Young General

One has to have a love/hate relationship with Custer.

On one hand, you have someone who made a name for himself - making a mark during the Civil War, and his eventual death on the battlefield at Little Bighorn.

On the other - you have someone who epitomizes laziness - literally doing the least that he could to make it where he felt he should be, was not one to follow orders (hence the Little Bighorn fiasco), and a real contempt for some.

Good book, great for those who are wanting to understand Gen. Custer, with a well-rounded look at his life, and death.
