Additionally to these two books, if anyone is interested in a quality colour plate of Custer
of similar detail and size as Durnford in Ian Knight's silver book, I'd recommend this -

G.A. Custer To The Little Bighorn
by Steve Alexander

He is dressed in his buckskins, as he was on the day apparently

Recently acquired both the books mentioned in the OP, far better appearance of both titles� covers.

The Williams book is a bit larger than the previous edition, with smaller writing, to takes up less papers.

Although I have the previous editions of these books, I prefer the look of these ones visually....
