Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GEORGE ARMSTRONG OUSTER was born in New Rumley, Ohio, December 5, 1839. New Rumley is a group of houses, an old established settlement, in Harrison County, on the border of Pennsylvania, and peopled from thence early in the last century. It is a small place, not set down on any but very large scale maps, and most of the population of the township is scattered in farm houses about the country. The family history, gleaned from the family Bible, is plain and simple. It is that of an honest group of hard workers, not ashamed of work, and it shows that the stock of which the future general came was good, such as made frontiersmen and pioneers in the last century. Emmanuel H. Custer, father of the general, was born in Cryssoptown, Alleghany County, Maryland, December 10th, 1806. To-day, a hale hearty old man of seventy, somewhat bowed, but well as ever to all seeming, he stands a living instance of the strong physique and keen wits of the determined men wlib made the wild forests of Ohio to bloom like the rose. He was brought up as a smith, and worked at his trade for many years, till he had saved enough money to buy a farm, when he became a cultivator. All he knows he taught himself, but he gave his children the best education that could be obtained in those early days in Ohio. "When quite a young man, he left

Book excerpt: My Life on the Plains is the first book in the History in Words and Pictures Series, a collection of books that bring you back in time, in the words of those who were there, with visions of the world as they saw it. The History in Words and Pictures Series is a thoughtfully selected collection of historical works, edited to a modern reading experience and supplemented with archived and contemporary photography. Written by the General George Armstrong Custer, My Life on the Plains begins in the years following the Civil War when General Custer was assigned with the task of quelling Indian unrest in Kansas. The Indians had brought traffic to a standstill along the Overland Trail and the army seemed helpless to stop it. Custer embraces the challenge, yet boldly calls out the corruption in the Indian Department and the inept government policies that helped create the mess he is now charged with fixing. Custer's practice of "telling it like he sees it" creates a political conflict that follows him and perhaps contributes to his demise at the Battle of the Little Bighorn. This fascinating story allows us to experience history in the words and visions of those who made it rather than time and era biased interpretations. Other books in the History in Words and Pictures series include Following the Guidon by Custer's wife, Elizabeth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The memoirs of the most famous American cavalryman Those who pursue fame are occasionally fated to acquire it for reasons other than those of their ambitions. So it is with George Armstrong Custer who is principally renowned for being swiftly eradicated with most of his command on the final day of his career in the 'last stand' on the Little Big Horn. That end has been made the more ignominious since there is an abiding view that he was responsible for it. There was, inevitably, much more to the man than this and whilst his passions for fame, status and glory are acknowledged, the fact remains that Custer was a dashing, brave, dynamic officer whose deeds-particularly during the Civil War-had raised him to high rank with meteoric speed. He was an exceptional soldier and personality in a time and place where the unexceptional was the norm. This book, Custer's own account of his Indian Wars is, like any other memoir, not devoid of the bias, ego and hubris of the author. Nevertheless, it is singular for there was only one George Armstrong Custer and he has joined the legendary ranks of the outstanding characters of the American West. This is a fascinating insight into the mind and experiences of 'the man' and is essential reading for every enthusiast of the history of the period.
