eliza brown was not just some cook. she had grown up in a world without any security, in which she had to seize every opportunity to carve out safety and advantage for herself. as the cook to a brigade commander, she makes the most of the opportunity. she transforms herself into his household manager. she begins to trade information with couriers from other commands. she always has big treats ready when someone comes. she pumps them for information. she becomes the intercede or for the men with custer. they go to her first when they need a favor. she builds her own patronage network with other contraband, distributing food. that irritates custer after the war. she is someone who is this formidable person, who is living with custer. he likes and respects her. she becomes a part of his life. the reality of slavery and the way it has been broken down is something that is personal and real. he was very conservative for the war. he is now dealing with the reality of it on a personal level. when libbie comes during the winter
