Custer is a 2012 non-fiction book by American author Larry McMurtry about the U.S. Army general George Armstrong Custer. Published by Simon & Schuster, the 192-page book (ISBN 9781451626216) is a companion to McMurtry’s earlier biography of Crazy Horse. The author provides concise reflections on Custer and his era. Critical reception was mixed: some reviewers felt the book is brief and overlooks essential details, while others saw it as an informed mini-portrait with fresh insights, though it includes some digressions and off-topic moments.
