John Johnston, the mountain man, better known as Liver-Eating Johnson, or the Crow Killer. Robert Redford’s character Jeremiah Johnson was VERY loosely based on him, unfortunately the movie people left out the eating-human-livers-raw part. Too bad, it would have improved the movie a lot IMO.
In answer to your other post, no, I don’t think he generally had any fava beans or Chianti to go with the livers.
(There is some historical dispute as to whether Johnston ever actually ate anybody’s liver, but I prefer to believe the legend.)
Jeremiah Johnson was a good movie.........
