REVIEW:
The Web site comes from the Custer Battlefield Historical and Museum Association, and was created for people interested in General Custer. Users will find regular updates in the section titled "News from the Battlefield," which provides information on the happenings at and around the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument in Montana. Students will find online biographies of Gen. Custer, Frederick Benteen, Marcus Reno, and Sitting Bull. Detailed information on the Battle of Little Bighorn is available at the site. Viewers can get specific information about trips to the monument. After reading the information at the site, visitors can take an online quiz. The information here is detailed and limited to a very specific topic. It would be especially useful to students doing research for reports, or for a short, interactive lesson on the subject matter.
