But He Didn’t Die
Bridger and Fitzgerald reported to Henry that Glass died, even though he didn’t. Glass regained consciousness and found himself abandoned with no weapons or equipment of any kind.
He had a broken leg and cuts on his back, exposing his ribs. He was more than 200 miles away from the closest settlement. He had to reset his broken leg, wrapped himself in the bear hide that they placed over him, and started to crawl.
He survived for six weeks in the forest. Do you know how?
