Boots and Saddles is in reality a bright and sunny sketch of the life of Mrs. Custer's late husband, General George A. Custer, who fell at the battle of Little Big Horn. After the war, General Custer was sent to the Indian frontier. His wife was of the party and she is able to give in minute detail the story of her husband's varied career since she was almost always near the scene of his adventures. She touches on themes little canvassed by the civilian, and makes a volume equally redolent of a loving devotion to an honored husband and attractive as a picture of necessary duty by the soldier.

Elizabeth Bacon Custer began writing articles and making speaking engagements praising the glory of what she presented as her "martyred" husband, General George Armstrong Custer. Her three books—Boots and Saddles (1885), Tenting on the Plains—(1887), and Following the Guidon (1890) aimed at glorifying her dead husband's memory. Though generally considered to be largely factually accurate, they were clearly slanted in Custer's favor. Her efforts were successful. The image of a steely Custer leading his men against overwhelming odds only to be wiped out while defending their position to the last man became as much a part of American lore as the Alamo.

The honeymoon of Elizabeth Bacon and George Armstrong Custer was interrupted in 1864 by his call to duty with the Army of the Potomac. She begged to be allowed to go along, thus setting the pattern of her future life. From that time on, she accompanied General Custer on all of his major assignments, aside from the summer Indian campaigns - "The only woman," she said, "who always rode with the regiment." Her story, told by herself, is an absorbing adventure. Moreover, there is a added bonus - a gentle, loving portrait of George Armstrong Custer, husband and man, by the person who knew him best, his wife. Her absolute devotion to him is revealed in every line of her account, which ends, appropriately enough, with the day on which she received the news of the disaster at the Little Big Horn.

The Gunsmith 447 “Boots and Saddles” is the title of the first of 3 books written by Elizabeth Bacon Custer about her husband George Armstrong Custer. In this book the Gunsmith encounters Elizabeth while she is putting her second book together. It’s called “Tenting on the Plains” and is to be published in 1887. She asks Clint’s help in confirming some of what she will be writing. Although Clint did not like George Armstrong Custer, and doesn’t feel he was heroic in any way, he agrees. However, as they progress west he finds he is unable to keep quiet while Libbie Custer praises her dead husband. Since their opinions are so diametrically opposed, this leads to arguments. But, when several attempts are made to either injure or kidnap Libbie, Clint has to wonder who else's opinion is so opposite hers that they would want to harm her to keep her from writing any further?

This is the story of life with General George Armstrong Custer as told by his wife Elizabeth Bacon Custer (1842-1933). She was a housewife on the plains, nurse to frostbitten soldiers, and any-hour-of-the-day hostess to the regiment. She was also the garrison's favorite confidante, and would-be Indian fighter whenever the women of the regiment had to be left alone. Elizabeth rode with Custer on all of his major expeditions except his summer Indian campaigns. Boots and Saddles also offers a gentle, loving portrait of Custer by the person who knew him best. Elizabeth' devotion to him is reinforced throughout the book, which ends the only way it could: by Custer's disaster at Little Big Horn.

"While it is well known that General George Armstrong Custer [1839-1876] died in the Battle of Little Big Horn in the summer of 1876, much less is known of the day-to-day life of an officer serving at frontier forts during the heyday of the old wild west. In this volume, written while the memories were still fresh in her mind, Mrs. Custer describes her life on the frontier with her famous husband. She presents a fascinating account of garrison life at isolated posts in the Dakota Territory, and describes the hardships and tragedies experienced. She also gives some insights into the character of the men of the famed Seventh Cavalry Regiment which met its fate at Little Big Horn. The main text is supplemented with an appendix giving extracts from letters General Custer wrote to his wife during his Yellowstone expedition of 1873, from the Black Hills in 1874, and from Yellowstone in 1876"--Back paper cover.
