Samuel was Hugh' son. He left behind a family in Scranton PA. when he went out west. In the family records I have he was called Hugo. Also, what has never been pointed out is the fact he was Jewish. Something he hid. That is why he changed Hugo to Hugh. My Grandfather was Samuel Glass. Samuel was Hugh' son. He left behind a family in Scranton PA. when he went out west.

I don't know why or what had provoked my teacher to tell it, but he told it in rich detail, in such a way that it has stayed with me for the past 38 years. A few years ago, I thought of the story and determined to find out if there was a book on the story. I found Hugh Glass, Mountain Man, by Robert M. McClung at our local library and checked it out. Eager for an exciting read-aloud for my children I started reading. This was an exciting rendition and as far as I can remember was accurate in the recitation of my science teacher. This was the best read aloud book I ever took on with my children which included two teenage boys about 14 and 16 years old at the time.

I am always interested to read another account of the tale. This version seems to hit all the major historical details of the attack and Glass' pursuant saga.
