Customer Reviews

Hugh glass = fresh

Hugh Glass mountain man. This book is about A hunter Who is in a fur collecting company. One night hewas in a very exciting fight with a bear. He shot it in the head and stabbed it repeatedly and the bear dies and hugh is severely injured. His fellow hunters don't think he will live and leave him for dead. He lives and struggles to stay alive eating whatever he can find. Meeting indians, neutral and aggressive. It's a really well done survival book. I recomend this book for people who like rugged survival books.

Great story

Although we don't know much about Hugh Glass, Robert M. McClung writes in a way that makes us think we do. It is a story to interest anyone in our American Pioneering Era.

Great pick for anyone looking for a fast, fun read.

An exciting, fast-paced adventure story that will entice even the most reluctant of readers. I have found this to be one of few books that my low-level, disinterested readers truly enjoy. Strongly recommended as supplementary or classroom reading for middle level students.

excellent book

this book held the attention of my son who will only read books about the outdoors. This book is right up there with all of the Paulson books
