None Wounded, None Missing, All Dead: The Story of Elizabeth Bacon Custer.
One of the most charming and controversial soldiers the country ever produced, George Armstrong Custer and his equally delightful and charming bride were devoted to one another. They valued the time they spent together in the field and at their never-permanent homes at various army posts. Many times, Elizabeth lived in a tent alongside members of the 7th Cavalry.
Over the twelve years the Custers were together, Elizabeth had lived history. She and George had honeymooned in war zones during the waning years of the Civil War, and she had witnessed the surrender of Robert E. Lee at the Appomattox Court House. (She was later given the table at which the terms of surrender were signed.) Elizabeth embarked upon her frontier life following the Civil War, when George’s regiment was sent to Texas to facilitate Reconstruction, and later, to the Great Plains states as an “Indian fighter.” Her life was a series of thrilling adventures that lasted until the memorable day when Custer and his troops made their immortal last stand against the Sioux Indians.
