In the late 19th century, as the United States expanded westward, the Dakota territories became a frontier of both opportunity and conflict. "Boots and Saddles; Or, Life in Dakota with General Custer" by Elizabeth B. Custer offers a unique perspective on military life through the eyes of a woman married to one of the era's most controversial figures. This memoir reveals the challenges of army life, from the harsh realities of frontier living to the complexities of relationships within a military community. Ideal for historians and civic activists alike, Custer's account captures the essence of duty and resilience, while shedding light on the unyielding spirit of those who shaped this pivotal chapter in American history.
