Step into the tumultuous heart of one of America's most infamous military disasters with *The Downfall of Pride: Custer's Catastrophic Decisions at Little Bighorn*. This gripping and meticulously researched account unveils the tragic miscalculations and hubris that led to General George Armstrong Custer's dramatic downfall at the Battle of Little Bighorn.

Explore how Custer's unyielding arrogance and strategic blunders set the stage for his ultimate defeat. Delve into the psychological and tactical errors that transformed his confidence into a fatal flaw. Experience the chaos of June 25, 1876, through vivid, on-the-ground descriptions and personal accounts from both Custer's troops and Native American warriors. Discover how decisions made during intense pressure led to one of the most significant confrontations in American history.

*The Downfall of Pride* is more than just a historical account; it's a compelling exploration of leadership, ego, and the devastating consequences of underestimating your opponents. Perfect for history buffs, military enthusiasts, and anyone fascinated by the complexities of human nature, this book offers a profound look at how pride and misjudgment can lead to ruin. Dive into this riveting tale of ambition, failure, and the relentless quest for redemption in one of history's most defining battles.
