Synopsis
Refusing to see Custer's defeat at Little Big Horn on June 25, 1876, as a contest between heroes and villains, Evan S. Connell recreates that historic day, and the events leading up to it, in a powerful novel that provides a refreshing view of the Old West. SON OF THE MORNING STAR is both historical novel and straightforward narrative, the result of Connell's extensive research into the facts on record and--just as important--the minds of the participants. In a series of nuanced and unprejudiced portraits, he brings to vibrant life not only Custer, Sitting Bull, and Crazy Horse, but a wealth of minor characters that include Comanche, the only horse in Custer's cavalry that survived. In Connell's hands, the Battle of Little Big Horn becomes a stirring drama that encompasses the American lust for glory, the plight of the Cheyenne and Sioux, and the brutality and bravery that existed on both sides at a pivotal moment in US history.

Industry reviews
"... Fits into none of the classifications of books about Custer. It is unique and for that reason should endure."
book jacket - Dee Brown 

"A marvelous chronicle of one of the most crucial days in American history."
book jacket - Peter Matthiessen 

"[A]n epic work of nonfiction that perhaps more than any other piece of American literature can compete with WAR AND PEACE (doing for the Plains Wars what Tolstoy's novel did for the Napoleonic ones)....He moves freely through time and space, flashing backward and forward but always circling and circling, like the war-hollering Sioux on their ponies, around the mystery of what happened on that Montana hillside...."
Harper's - Donovan Hohn (12/01/2001)

"Apart from its importance as the best book on Custer in print then and now, SON OF THE MORNING STAR offered evidence 20 years ago that Connell, a prolific novelist, poet, and historian who has written consistently good books for half a century, has been unjustly ignored....[H]is book is a modern classic."
Kirkus - Gregory McNamee (07/01/2004)
