De: Hourly History

Narrado por: Charlie Brogan

Discover the remarkable life of George Armstrong Custer...

George Armstrong Custer is remembered for his last stand—that fateful day at the Little Bighorn when he and his unit were caught in an ambush that would end their lives. But Custer's story was much more than that single moment of catastrophe. From a mischievous farm boy in Ohio to a struggling West Point cadet, Custer lived a life of constant drama. He became the Union's youngest general, a daring Civil War hero who rode fearlessly into battle with his signature golden locks flowing behind him.

But although his boldness brought him glory on Civil War battlefields, that same audacity would prove his undoing on the banks of the Little Bighorn River. When a dispute arose over tribal land and the needs of the federal government, George Armstrong Custer was forced into that aforementioned last stand. This book chronicles the full arc of Custer's life—the triumphs, the scandals, the questionable decisions, and yes, that final, desperate stand that would seal his place in US history.
