Author Biography: James Fenimore Cooper

James Fenimore Cooper is considered by many to be America's first great novelist. His most popular work, The Last of the Mohicans, has remained one of the most widely read novels throughout the world, greatly influencing the way many cultures have viewed both the American Indians and the frontier period of U.S. history.

Book Synopsis

Acclaimed by D. H. Lawrence as "the loveliest and best" of Cooper's "Leatherstocking Tales," this adventure recaptures the danger and excitement of frontier life during the French and Indian Wars.
