Bringing a wealth of new information to his subject, as well as his characteristic literary flair, Philbrick details the collision between two American icons- George Armstrong Custer and Sitting Bull-that both parties wished to avoid, and brilliantly explains how the battle that ensued has been shaped and reshaped by national myth.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNathaniel Philbrick\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eIn the Heart of the Sea\u003c\/i\u003e, winner of the National Book Award; \u003ci\u003eMayflower\u003c\/i\u003e, finalist for the Pulitzer Prize; \u003ci\u003eBunker Hill\u003c\/i\u003e, winner of the New England Book Award;\u003ci\u003e Sea of Glory\u003c\/i\u003e; \u003ci\u003eThe Last Stand\u003c\/i\u003e; \u003ci\u003eWhy Read Moby Dick?\u003c\/i\u003e; and \u003ci\u003eAway Off Shore\u003c\/i\u003e.
