The Mystery of E Troop: Custer's Gray Horse Company at the Little Bighorn Gregory Michno

"If one were to buy one book dealing with the Custer fight and the recent archaeological discoveries, this is the one."--John Milton Hutchins, Denver Westerners Roundup

But which ravine? Why couldn't the army find their bones only a few years later? Why didn't archaeological excavations uncover any remains? The answers, finally, are at hand.
