Steve takes you back in time to those torrid days in June 25 & 26, 1876 where Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer and 647 troops of the 7th Cavalry clashed with 1,800 Lakota and Cheyenne warriors who were fiercely determined to hang on to the last vestiges of their way of life. Participating in Steve’s tour will help you to understand the triumph and tragedy of the Battle of the Little Bighorn, an event that is still controversial today.
Steve Adelson’s knowledge of this period in American history is unparalleled. For anyone seeking in-depth information about the events leading up to the battle, the battle itself, and its aftermath, I highly recommend Steve’s tours as an essential resource.”
