Summary "Custer and Other Poems" by Ella Wheeler Wilcox is a collection of poetry written in the late 19th century. This volume reflects on themes of courage, love, human experiences, and the complexity of life, punctuated by the narrative of Custer's adventures and the moral implications of his legacy. The opening poem introduces the character of George Armstrong Custer, emphasizing his valor and contrasting it with the consequences of his actions. The beginning of the collection presents a profound exploration of Custer's character and his unyielding spirit in battle. The poet reverently portrays Custer as both a soldier and a man, contemplating the nature of heroism while also acknowledging the darker truths of history, particularly his role in the conflicts between Native Americans and settlers. The poems speak not only of valor but also invoke reflections on moral responsibility, justice, and the complexity of human relationships, setting the stage for the philosophical inquiries that permeate the subsequent verses.
