Thanks for the tip, NightWing. Soemtimes it's hard differentiating tales of the Old West, fact from fiction. In the end, I wonder if it really matters?Sometimes I go exploring for lost mines, according to legend and records, in the wilderness. Haven't found one yet, but I've never found a better way of getting off the beaten path with a purpose. ;)

Highly recommended reading for the survivalist and back to nature wanabe mountain man the book is based on fact but a lot of the information is gleaned from stories and legends around the character of John Johnson. Although I read a couple of unnecessarily harsh reviews of the book, never the less it is a totally absorbing tale of an American legend and long since dead lifestyle.

If you love the movie try the book it was based on. CROW KILLER The Saga of Liver-Eating Johnson. (Indiana Press) ISBN 0-253-20312-0. His real name was John Johnson. Six foot two and 250 lb of mountain man who in the mid 1800s declared a personal war on the Crow Indian Nation (or should I say them on him) he was reputed to have killed 300 of their warriors. YOU WILL LOVE THE BOOK, I PROMISE.
