About this item

Step into the heart of history and adventure with one of the Old West’s essential classics—an extraordinary firsthand look at the epic Battle of the Little Bighorn. Legendary Cheyenne warrior Wooden Leg shares his riveting true narrative, recorded by Dr. Thomas Marquis after years of trust and extensive interviews. Experience the real story behind Custer and the 7th Cavalry, as seen through Native eyes. Modern scholars now recognize these authentic Indian eyewitness accounts as the missing key to understanding what went wrong for Custer—and what went right for the Sioux and Cheyenne. Recent battlefield archaeology and gripping Indigenous testimony show that Wooden Leg’s remarkable life and legacy helped reshape the history of the frontier. Journey beyond the battlefield to discover fascinating stories of the Cheyenne way of life, hear Wooden Leg’s memories of childhood and Indian medicine, and become immersed in an edge-of-your-seat retelling of the Little Bighorn fight. Packed with adventure, truth, and new perspectives, this book is a must-read for lovers of Native American history, frontier army tales, and Western legend.
