Five days later, Gibbon and General Alfred Terry came upon an unimaginable scene of horror.He describes his own shock, that of his troops, and the condition of the devastated troopers under Major Marcus Reno, who had survived two days of battle before the Indians left the Little Bighorn Valley upon the approach of Terry's forces.Nearly 140 years later, the Battle of the Little Bighorn continues to stir up debate and controversy.
