Here are some rather splendid pix of this year's re-enactment: tinyurl.com/e6san(I presume the wagon-train episode isn't supposed to be part of the battle! Or Father De Smet, for that matter.) It does all look rather wonderful. Ah well ... |

Thanks Elisabeth. You do find the most interesting and timely little tidbits. I have visited LBH but it was in October and during beautiful, cool, breezy weather. The shot of the people in the stands looks "warm and cozy," do you not agree? ;D Here is an interesting link from the BBC re/LBH: www.bbc.co.uk/history/war/custer_battle_01.shtmlDo you know of other writings of Mr. Batten?? Thanks. |

I don't know off-hand, but he's a leading member of the CAGB (Custer Association of Great Britain), so will almost certainly have written for their journal, The Crow's Nest -- and may well have published more. I'll trawl around and see what I can find. Meanwhile, you might enjoy this: tinyurl.com/fv26r |
