A season of legends
The summer of 1876 was a key time period in the development of the mythology of the Old West. Many individuals who are considered legends by modern readers were involved in events that began their notoriety or turned out to be the most famous—or infamous—moments of their lives. Those individuals were George Armstrong Custer, Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson, Wild Bill Hickok, and Jesse James.
The Summer of 1876 weaves together the timelines of the events that made these men legends. Plus, for context, significant milestones of 1876 are included, such as the invention of the telephone, the final year of President Ulysses S. Grant’s administration, and the release of Mark Twain’s novel The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.
