A new perspective on the Battle of the Little Big Horn and the death of G. A. Custer. Ground breaking new history.
Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer died at the hands of Native Americans by the banks of the Little Big Horn in Montana on 25th June 1876. This is an established undisputed fact. What is disputed is the real reason that he died. So forget all you have been indoctrinated to believe and begin to learn the truth.
George Custer was an anathema to his superiors, but the populace loved him. If he were to stand for president in the coming elections, there was a strong possibility that he would win. Neither William T. Sherman nor 'Little Phil' Sheridan could allow that to happen. Thus, they conspired to put Custer in a position in the field where the opposing Sioux and Cheyenne were stronger and could deliver the coup de grΓ’ce.
The Battle of the Little Big Horn is the first of two volumes to deal with the circumstances that arose, leading the Native Americans on a collision course with the US Army that fateful day and the death of a national hero. Subsequently, the conspiracy is uncovered and shows how these men used their powers and positions and so deftly covered their tracks. Perhaps, but not quite.
Thirty years of diligent research have uncovered the truth in this groundbreaking history. Unmissable and shocking, dare you not read this surprising revelation?
