<span>Hunter, trapper, resourceful fighter, and scout, Hugh Glass was  just a rugged man among other rugged American frontiersmen until he was  mauled by a grizzly bear and left for dead by his best friends. Hugh's  rage drove him to crawl two hundred miles across dangerous territory to  seek revenge until he was no longer Hugh Glass but had become Lord  Grizzly. Lord Grizzly is the second volume of Frederick Manfred's  acclaimed five-volume series, The Buckskin Man Tales. For this Bison  Books edition, poet Freya Manfred provides a new introduction. Frederick  Manfred (1912-94) grew up on a farm in Iowa with six brothers, attended  Calvin College in Michigan, and then hitchhiked for two years across  America, which provided him with rich material for his novels. He is the  author of twenty-four novels, including a five-volume series, The  Buckskin Man Tales, which includes Lord Grizzly, a finalist for the 1954  National Book Award, Conquering Horse, Scarlet Plume, King of Spades,  and Riders of Judgment. He also published volumes of poetry, short  stories, and essays. John R. Milton (1924-95) taught at the University  of South Dakota and is the author of several works, including The Novel  of the American West, South Dakota: A Bicentennial History, and The Tree  of Bones and Other Poems. Freya Manfred is the author of the memoir  Frederick Manfred: A Daughter Remembers and six books of poetry,  including My Only Home and Swimming With A Hundred Year Old Snapping  Turtle.</span>
