Book Reviews of Where Custer Fell: Photographs of the Little Bighorn Battlefield Then and Now
Book Review: A scholalry publication, not a picture book for tourists
Summary: 5 Stars
The authors' goal in this publication is to resolve some historical questions and cast perspectives regarding both the battle, battlefield, and historical photographs of the battlefield. This is not a picture book for tourists. The text is well written and more for the student of the battle. Even those who are well read on the topic will find some gems of interesting information in here. I think some contextual photographs would have been helpful, such as of the Crow's nest, the present likely lines of Reno's valley action, etc.. I think the thing I most miss is precise GPS coordinates of the camera locations. This would have been extremely helpful to do direct by eye comparisons when visiting the battlefield. This alone also might have made the book more popular for the casual tourists. Hopefully a future edition will have this data. I would recommend this book to anyone seriously interested in the battle.
