Music Business Professor Dr. Don Cusic was at the Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City recently to sign copies of his latest book, The Trials of Henry Flipper, First Black Graduate of West Point. Cusic’s biography of Flipper, who was court martialed in 1881 in one of the most controversial courts martial in history, looks beyond that event and chronicles a young black man who was born a slave, lived through the Civil War and died as World War II began in Europe.
