It was Gall, enraged by the slaughter of his family, who led the charge across Medicine Tail Ford to attack Custer's main forces on the other side of the Little Bighorn. <P>Robert W. Larson now sorts through contrasting views of Gall, to determine the real character of this legendary Sioux. This first-ever scholarly biography also focuses on the actions Gall took during his final years on the reservation, unraveling his last fourteen years to better understand his previous forty. <P>Filling many gaps in our understanding of this warrior and his relationship with Sitting Bull, this engaging biography also offers new interpretations of the Little Bighorn that lay to rest the contention that Gall was "Custer's Conqueror." <i>Gall: Lakota War Chief</i> broadens our understanding of both the man and his people. 1417419 30 8 2007 Gall: Lakota War Chief total:2|4:2| 2 8 7 0 4 0 false false Sun May 17 16:34:56 -0700 2009 Sun May 17 16:34:56 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Oct 04 20:12:30 -0700 2008 Sat Oct 04 20:12:30 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Oct 03 18:45:20 -0700 2008 Fri Oct 03 18:45:20 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Wed Jun 18 15:47:59 -0700 2008 Wed Jun 18 15:47:59 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Apr 24 07:52:55 -0700 2008 Thu Apr 24 07:52:59 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Mar 06 12:50:33 -0800 2008 Thu Mar 06 12:50:40 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Sun Aug 03 17:45:41 -0700 2008 Thu Feb 07 17:33:54 -0800 2008 Sun Aug 03 17:45:41 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=1426935
