Description: John Lubetkin's novel carries the reader through a richly detailed world of railroad surveyors and military escorts establishing the route of the Northern Pacific along the Yellowstone River in the early 1870s. Fierce Sioux oppose their work. This clash might furnish excitement enough, but Custer's Gold has a more sinister underlying plot: recovering buried treasure from a spectacular bank robbery. Since the larger-than-life Custer is on the scene, he naturally gets involved. Suspense about whether the gold will be unearthed, and who will get it, is maintained until the end in this historically accurate and gripping adventure.
