Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument

By Marie Roesser

The Little Bighorn National Monument is an important American landmark. However, it doesn't evoke feelings of pride and patriotism. Rather, it serves to remind Americans about the country's complex history and the Native Americans' struggle to preserve atraditional way of life. The Little Bighorn National Monument is the site of a battle in 1876 between the U.S. Army, led by George Custer, and Lakota, Cheyenne, and Arapaho peoples. Readers will learn more about the conflict, its outcome, and what the monument looks like today. The accessible text, a benefit to any social studies curricular collection, is paired with carefully chosen photographs and stunning historical images.
