Abstract:
The Avenging Fury of the Plains presents the truth about the often brutal frontier exploits of mountain man and Indian fighter, John “Liver-Eating” Johnston. What’s so special about this long dead frontier character? He purportedly ate the livers of Indians he’d slain in battle. His story was so compelling that Hollywood produced a movie (Jeremiah Johnson) about his wilderness experiences, starring Robert Redford. The Avenging Fury of the Plains is the first book to dismantle all the myths that surround the life of “Liver-Eating” Johnston. Did he really eat human livers? Read and discover for yourself.
