视上下文可以考虑翻译成, 穿熊皮袄的强盗

A tale of endurance and spiritual transformation through suffering. After making a pact with the devil, a former Civil War soldier is given unlimited riches, but he will lose his soul unless he wears a bearskin and goes without a bath, haircut, shave, or manicure for seven years. Bearskin grows a repulsive seven-year accumulation of hair, grime, and fingernails, and is cut off from human society. But when his heart opens to the suffering of another, he wins the hand of a kind and beautiful girl, and the devil is obliged to give him a bath.

If hikers along one of Mount Magazine\'s secluded hiking trails were to see Don Simons step out of the woods clad in a bearskin robe and buckskin pants, carrying a tomahawk and armed with an authentic flintlock rifle, they might think they\'d wandered back in time to the 1820s. Simons, who himself manufactured his attire, can be quite convincing.
