However, at times Congress treated the Indians with good faith and honored due process, which prohibits the government from robbing any person of life, liberty, or property without a fair hearing before an impartial judge or jury. These due process requirements protect all Americans and were in effect when President Grant launched the Great Sioux War in 1876--without a formal declaration of war by Congress. Charles E. Wright analyzes the legal backdrop to the Great Sioux War, asking the hard questions of how treaties were to be honored and how the US government failed to abide by its sovereign word. Until now, little attention has been focused on how the events leading up to and during the Battle of Little Big Horn violated American law. While other authors have analyzed George Armstrong Custer's tactics and equipment, Wright is the first to investigate the legal and constitutional issues surrounding the United States' campaign against the American Indians. This is not just another Custer book. Its contents will surprise even the most accomplished Little Big Horn scholar"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 00 $t The impact of Custer's defeat on the Cheyenne and Lakota Indians -- $t Custer and the Seventh Cavalry Regiment -- $t The Indians who fought at the Little Big Horn -- $t Laws, treaties, and the doctrine of good faith -- $t The 1868 Treaty of Fort Laramie and President Grant's conspiracy -- $t The Great Sioux War is launched -- $t June 21, 1876 : the setting -- $t June 22 : Terry's plan, Custer moves out -- $t Lack of intelligence and inadequate planning -- $t June 25 : Custer deploys for battle -- $t The Little Big Horn battlefield -- $t Custer's final battle : the evidence and battle tactics -- $t Aftermath of battle -- $t Standards for evaluation of Custer -- $t Factors affecting Custer's performance -- $t Evaluation of Custer and the Seventh Cavalry at Little Big Horn -- $t The impact of Custer's defeat on the Cheyenne and Lakota Indians -- $g Epilogue. 650 0 $a Black Hills War, 1876-1877 $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a Dakota Indians $x History $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Cheyenne Indians $x History $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Black Hills War, 1876-1877. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2016000251 650 0 $a Little Bighorn, Battle of the, Mont., 1876. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85077676 650 7 $a HISTORY $z United States $x 19th Century. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY $z United States $x West (AK, CA, CO, HI, ID, MT, NV, UT, WY) $x West (AK, CA, CO, HI, ID, MT, NV, UT, WY) $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LAW $x Military. $2 bisacsh 611 27 $a Indian Wars (Cheyenne : 1876) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01696679 611 27 $a Indian Wars (Dakota : 1876) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01696685 611 07 $a Little Bighorn, Battle of the (Montana : 1876) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01353578 650 7 $a Cheyenne Indians. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00853943 650 7 $a Cheyenne Indians $x Legal status, laws, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00853954 650 7 $a Dakota Indians. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00887107 650 7 $a Dakota Indians $x Legal status, laws, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00887125 650 7 $a Legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00995636 651 7 $a Montana. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01207555 648 7 $a 1800 - 1899 $2 fast 653 $a Great Sioux War 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 $a Bakken, Gordon Morris, $e writer of foreword. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n82153655 830 0 $a Plains histories. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2005047243 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017020814.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=64CC3082F11E11E79D0FC10F97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
