This link was shared by AZRanger backtrackwest1876.com/This book also comes with a DVD. The author recommends viewing the DVD first before reading the book.

The video will be familiar to anyone that has heard his talk at the visitor center at the battlefield. It is a great presentation.
Steve is a seasonal interpretive park ranger at the battlefield. I am jealous of where they can go on their free time.

For those who have visited the LBH, you may have heard Steve speak. If you have not visited, Steve's knowledge is worth the investment in this book and video. I had the opportunity to spend some time with Steve last Summer even had breakfast with him at Quincannon's favorite restaurant. Well for those of you that know me, on this occasion I adhered to the old adage about two ears and one mouth.
Regards, Tom

Well I just got off the phone with a real sweet lady named Kathryn Burke, with San Juan Publishing Group Inc. who helped me order my copy of Steve Adelson's book Little Big Horn, Voices from a Distant Wind. I do not have Pen Pal and she helped me use my credit card to order the book.
I look forward to securing my copy and reading Steve's sketches of the participants. Being recommended by both AZ Ranger and Deadwood speaks highly of the author. Regards Dave

I got the book and DVD in the mail today. The poems paint a picture and your mind fills in the rest. Refreshing and it goes to some of the reasons I enjoy going to the battlefield every year. Lots of good friends there.
For those that make it in June we will have to hear these presentations. They don't change but to hear them in person and watch those exposed for the first time is a great time.
Well done my friend

I got my copy as well but haven't had a chance to even leaf through it yet. I was very surprised at how quickly it arrived.
