Synopsis
Marcus Reno is a pariah, a controversial figure accused of being responsible for the worst disaster ever to befall the army of the United States. Thirteen years past, he was one of George Armstrong Custer's senior officers when Custer and over 200 men in his command were annihilated by Sioux and Cheyenne warriors above the Little Big Horn River in Montana Territory.Now, in the spring of 1889, Major Reno is dying and wants to tell the real story of the Custer battle and wants his honor-the most precious word in his vocabulary--restored.Richard S. Wheeler, a master of the biographical novel, provides a brilliant reconstruction of the Custer battle and Marcus Reno's subsequent courts martial for "conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman," and brings to life a tortured man searching for peace and respect., A New York newspaperman is determined to fulfill a deathbed request: restore the honor of Major Marcus Reno, a survivor of Little Big Horn and a disgraced senior officer under General George Armstrong Custer.

    Excellent prices on used books in great condition. Shipped out quickly. Product condition is accurate to rating in listing. Thanks! NOTE: For this particular book (I ordered several), it came in a soft cover rather than hard cover as the listing stated. I contacted the seller and they responded promptly. They agreed that it was a listing error and provided me with a full refund for this book (without return required) proving they are both a responsible and trustworthy seller.
