Tenting on the Plains

Elizabeth Bacon Custer was just a young girl when she fell in love with one of the most controversial Indian fighters of the middle 1800s, and barely a woman when she defied her father to marry him. She went on to earn literary fame as well as financial independence with her entertaining tales of frontier life as the wife of General George Custer. Her stories of life on the plains are as colorful today as when they first appeared over a century ago.
