"There is no story like it in all literature and in all history. . . . The greatest and truest hero of all time was once a buckskin man living on the American frontier. Mr. Myers has done a fine job of scholarly research. He offers many new insights as to the true character of the mountain man. And the bibliography is alone worth the price of admission."—Frederick Manfred, Chicago News
"Myers has done a bang-up job, and when he finishes the reader readily understands why Glass’s experience became tradition among the Indians, who—far more than most whites—knew how to judge, and who appreciated and respected, a real man."—Arthur L. Coleman, San Antonio Express
