Hugh Glass Part 4
Howdy and Welcome back to Wild West Deep Dives, this is Part 4 of our Deep Dive into life of Hugh Glass. Last week, we talked about how his party was attacked by the normally peaceful Mandan and Hidatsa’s, his infamous encounter with Old Ephraim, Glass getting abandoned by his comrades, and his heroic journey of vengeance.
I know I left y’all on a cliff hanger last week, but man oh man do we have a lot to discuss! How would his quest for vengeance end? Will he kill the two men that left him to die? Would he get his damn rifle back?!? This will be a fun one.
Well let’s get into it shall we!
