Son of the Morning Star

De: Evan S. Connell

Narrado por: Adrian Cronauer

This national best-seller vividly reconstructs one of the most unbelievable and controversial battles in American military history—General Custer’s Last Stand in 1876. Why would a seasoned leader like Custer lead 200 U.S. Army soldiers into battle against 2,000 Native American warriors? The answer lies in this book, which captures in stunning detail the heroism, foolishness, and brutality that led to this legendary battle.

Well researched

The book does jump around a little. I thought the narrator was great occasionally inserted some humor but if your interested in the history of the west this book is a must read

Very good

Very detailed. Quite factual detailed and a pleasure to hear. Enjoyed the indef details of the book.

Intriguing account of this famous and infamous American figure

I thoroughly enjoyed this book which provided an in-depth account of this flamboyant historical figure, George Armstrong Custer. It also provided a fair and balanced account of the flip side story of the Native Americans. Both sides very tragic indeed. Well worth the read.

The depth of information was wonderful

I love the approach this author had. He didn’t just simply tell the story. He developed every character in depth as he went along and was that into the story. With this type of history, I found it wonderful.

Wonderful Narration and Prose

I loved this book. The narrator is marvellous, the writing is superb, and the story is compelling. The detail in this work about both Custer and the many people involved is rare, interesting and important. I learned a lot and highly recommend it.
