CUSTER: From the Civil War's Boy General to the Battle of Little Bighorn

This new biography is the result of Behncke's lifelong fascination with Custer. Being stationed at military posts in the American west during his Army career, including Fort Riley and Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, allowed him to retrace the routes of the 7th Cavalry campaign against the Plains Indians and understand the challenges Custer faced leading men in this landscape.
