"Cooke's account is...that Glass was caught too suddenly to retreat and staked his all upon a single shot...the bear rushed upon Glass with such speed that escape was impossible." - The American Fur Trade of the Far West (1902)
"Cooke...follows Glass minutely through all the adventurous way up the Missouri River...toward the supposed rendezvous of Henry's trappers." -James Bridger, Trapper, Frontiersman, Scout and Guide (1925)
"Cooke started his prairie life in 1829 as lieutenant in the expedition to the boundary to escort Santa Fe traders. In 1831 he made a trip overland to the Platte and to the Missouri." -The Plains and the Rockies (1920)
Mauled by a grizzly bear at the headwaters of the Missouri River and left for dead by fellow mountain men Fitzgerald and the youthful Jim Bridger, how did Hugh Glass manage to revive and crawl 200 miles to Fort Kiowa, South Dakota?
In 1857, Philip St. George Cooke (1809 -1895) would publish a short 10-page account of adventures of Hugh Glass inside his 1857 book titled, "Scenes and Adventures in the Army." It is this 10-page account that has been republished here for the convenience of the interested reader, "Some True Adventures in the Life of Hugh Glass, a Hunter and Trapper on the Missouri River."
Hugh Glass (c. 1780-1833) was an American fur trapper and frontiersman noted for his exploits in the American West during the first third of the 19th century. Glass was born in Pennsylvania, to Irish parents. He was an explorer of the watershed of the Upper Missouri River in present day North Dakota, South Dakota and Montana. Glass was famed, most of all, as a frontier folk hero for his legendary cross-country trek after being mauled by a grizzly bear. Glass' most famous adventure began in 1822, when he responded to an advertisement in the Missouri Gazette and Public Adviser, placed by General William Ashley, which called for a corps of 100 men to "ascend the river Missouri" as part of a fur trading venture. These men would later be known as Ashley's Hundred.
In modern pop culture, Hugh Glass is best known as the hero of the 2015 movie, The Revenant. The screenplay by Mark L. Smith and Iñárritu is based in part on Michael Punke's 2002 novel of the same name, which describes frontiersman Hugh Glass's experiences in 1823; that novel is, in turn, based on the 1915 poem The Song of Hugh Glass. The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio & Tom Hardy.

Über den Autor
Philip St. George Cooke (1809 - 1895) was a career United States Army cavalry officer who served as a Union General in the American Civil War. He is noted for his authorship of an Army cavalry manual, and is sometimes called the "Father of the U.S. Cavalry." His service in the Civil War was significant, but was eclipsed in prominence by the contributions made by his famous son in law, J.E.B. Stuart, to the Confederate States Army.
He served at a variety of installations in the American West and in the Black Hawk War. In 1833 he was promoted to first lieutenant in the newly formed 1st U.S. Dragoons.
Cooke went on numerous trips of exploration into the Far West with the Dragoons. As Captain in command of 200 Dragoons, he disarmed and arrested Colonel Jacob Snively's Republic of Texas company of about 100 men, who were attempting to disrupt trade along the Santa Fe Trail, in what was described as the Second Texas Santa Fe Expedition.
During the Mexican-American War he led the Mormon Battalion from Santa Fe to California, establishing what became known as Cooke's Wagon Road, later to become the southern route to California during the California Gold Rush. He received a brevet promotion to lieutenant colonel for his service in California. In command of 2nd U.S. Dragoons, he defeated the Jicarilla Apache in Ojo Caliente, New Mexico in 1854, was in the 1855 Battle of Ash Hollow against the Sioux, and was sent to keep the peace in Bleeding Kansas in 1856-1857. Acquainted with Brigham Young, Cooke took part in the Utah expedition of 1857-58, after which he was promoted to colonel and assigned command of the 2nd U.S. Dragoons. He was an observer for the U.S. Army in the Crimean War and commanded the Department of Utah from 1860 until 1861.
