Description
Crow Killer: A Legendary Tale of Vengeance The legend of John Johnson, a mountain man of extraordinary size and strength, has captivated millions through the 1972 film Jeremiah Johnson. However, the real Johnson was a far cry from the cinematic portrayal. Standing 6'2" in his stocking feet and weighing nearly 250 pounds, he was a formidable figure on the western frontier. One fateful morning in 1847, Johnson returned to his Rocky Mountain cabin to find the remains of his murdered Indian wife and her unborn child. This event sparked a decades-long vendetta against an entire Indian tribe. This new edition of Crow Killer, redesigned for the first time, sheds new light on this infamous tale, featuring an introduction by western frontier expert Nathan E. Bender and a glossary of Indian tribes.
