Legend Into History, The Custer Mystery.

CHARLES KUHLMAN

Publication: The Stockpile Company, 1951, Harrisburg

First edition. Cloth, 250pp., illus., charts, maps, including folding map of the battlefield and an organizational table of the 7th cavalry in pocket at rear. A detailed and scholarly examination of all known aspects of the Battle of the Little Bighorn. An excellent effort to separate the facts from the fiction to establish a better understanding of this legendary battle. "Still another masterwork, and a truly marvelous piece of deductive reasoning, is Charles Kuhlman's Legend into History...1951. Kuhlman's theories have not been accepted by all Custer scholars, but his research and the arguments which he marshals to support his reconstruction are difficult to contradict."---Tal Luther, Custer High Spots. A fine copy. Dust jacket shows occasional light edgewear and minor chipping to spine ends. Nice copies in the fragile pictorial dust jacket have become quite scarce. Original Stockpile Company promotional prospectus laid-in.
