The Battle of the Little Bighorn: A Defining Moment in American History
The Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876 was a significant event that marked the end of the Seventh Cavalry and the death of General Custer and all his men. The battle was vividly described as a chaotic and brutal confrontation between the cavalry and the Lakota Indians. This battle, as depicted in 'Flashman and the Red Skins', symbolizes a totemic moment in 19th-century American history, portraying the clash between the cavalry and the Lakota people, also known as the Sioux. The graphic and intense narrative captures the essence of the historical event, illustrating the violent and disordered nature of the battle that ultimately led to the demise of the Seventh Cavalry.
