I had a trip planned to the Little Big Horn, but then the pandemic hit. The stark loneliness of the field that one sees in pictures has always fascinated me. Probably time to reschedule. "Son of the Morning Star" is one of my all-time favorite books, but that may need to be balanced with another bio of GAC. It's a shame that he has been portrayed as an arrogant, bumbling blowhard (the ludicrous "Little Big Man,") but that is, alas, the spirit of the age. Connell suggests he was something of a martinet, and then there is the Washita business (orders from Phil Sheridan and/or Sherman and/or Grant?) but I think the evidence indicates that he was a brave, honorable and fundamentally decent man. His courage and daring in the Overland, as described by Gordon Rhea, was truly admirable. For me, at any rate, he came across as the most "warrior-like" and likable of the Union officers, completely fearless.
