About this episode
The landmark 1972 movie Jeremiah Johnson featuring Robert Redford should be mandatory viewing for every red-blooded American, and was based on a book entitled "Crow Killer: The Saga of Liver Eating Johnson." But who was he really, and was his name even Johnson? From the Buffalo Bill Center of the West, Nathan Bender tells us all about this part-man-part-myth historical figure. Where'd he come from, why'd he prefer Hawkins guns, what'd he do for money, why'd he fight the Crows and why'd he start eating their livers--or did he? Inspired into a history career by the original Jeremiah Johnson movie, he's since become an authority on the topic. Following this interview, I returned to Mountain View Mallard's lodge and rewatched the movie for the umpteenth time. Check it out.
