Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Last of the Mohicans: A Narrative of 1757 by James Fenimore Cooper; Illustrator: N. C. Wyeth, published 1919. Historical novel, first published in February 1826. It is the second book of the Leatherstocking Tales pentalogy and the best known. The Pathfinder, published 14 years later in 1840, is its sequel. The story takes place in 1757, during the French and Indian War (the Seven Years' War), when France and Great Britain battled for control of the North American colonies. During this war, the French called on allied Native American tribes to fight against the more numerous British colonists in this region. The novel was one of the most popular in English in its time, although critics identified narrative flaws. Its length and formal prose style have limited its appeal to later readers, yet The Last of the Mohicans remains widely read in American literature courses. James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851) was a prolific and popular American writer of the early 19th century. His historical romances of frontier and Indian life in the early American days created a unique form of American literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Last of the Mohicans; A narrative of 1757 by James Fenimore Cooper The Last of the Mohicans is told from a limited point of view in the third person. The narration of the story explains the events and actions of the novel but does not give an idea of the thoughts or motivations of the characters. The only way to obtain this information is by interpreting what the dramatis personae do and say. This perspective is further limited by Hawkeye's centrality in the narrative. With very few exceptions, Cooper limits the scope of the narrative to events that directly involve Hawkeye. At the beginning of the story, the narrative and point of view follow first David Gamut, then the Munro sisters and Major Heyward. Cooper changes the story to introduce Hawkeye, Chingachgook, and Uncas, only to bring them to the group consisting of Heyward, the Munro sisters, Gamut, and Magua. From that point on, there are minimal interruptions to the point of view that directly involves Hawkeye. The point of view changes to sisters Munro and Heyward when they are captured by the Huron Indians, and follows them until their captors kill them. Once Hawkeye and the Mohicans affect their rescue, the narrative follows them once again, until Fort Henry's capitulation to the French. At that point, during the ensuing battle between the Ferrets and the English, Cooper once again focuses on the sisters Munro and Gamut as Magua leads them. The story then passes to Hawkeye, Colonel Munro, and Heyward as they follow the sisters and their abductor. There are only a few scene changes to keep the reader informed of his fate, while Cooper primarily delivers the story to the events and actions of Hawkeye and his group. The historical romance Set in the third year of the war between France and India, The Last of the Mohicans is a historical novel, but it does not attempt to provide a direct account of the recorded events of the time. Cooper, like one of the other popular authors of his day, Sir Walter Scott places more importance on narrative than on the historical context in which it takes place. However, the book is not completely fictional. It refers to the Fort William Henry massacre, and some of the characters in the novel are based, at least in part, on real figures: Colonel Munro, of the English army, and the Marquis de Montcalm, of the French. The names of the Indian tribes, Delaware, Huron, and Mohawk are of course real, and "Mohican" is a corruption of "Mohegan". There are some deviations from the facts. Despite the book's title and events, there were still members of the Mohawk tribe in the area when Cooper wrote his novel. In fact, the Mohicans, or Mohegans, as they are more commonly known now, were not wiped out by the French and Indian War. Members of the tribe still exist today, and they still live in the upper New York state area. The novel takes place within the area in which Cooper himself lived. At the time it was written, the rural areas of New York State were no longer the wild forests of Cooper's novel, and the frontier had long since moved west. By basing his story on the area around him, Cooper was able to draw on local memories and stories for himself. Historical romance was one of the two best-selling and most popular fiction genres of the time. After taking English parlor comedy as a model for his first novel, Cooper turned to...

Book excerpt: The Last of the Mohicans is a historical novel by James Fenimore Cooper, first published in January 1826.It was one of the most popular English-language novels of its time. Its narrative flaws were criticized from the start, and its length and elaborately formal prose style have reduced its appeal to later readers. Regardless, The Last of the Mohicans is widely read in American literature courses. This second book of the Leatherstocking Tales pentalogy is the best known. The Pathfinder, written 14 years later in 1840, is its sequel.Cooper named a principal character Uncas after the most famous of the Mohicans. The real Mohicans lived in the colony of Connecticut in the mid-seventeenth century, and not in the New York frontier a century later. Uncas was a Mohegan, not a Mohican, and Cooper's usage has helped to confuse the names of two tribes to the present day. When John Uncas, his last surviving male descendant died in 1842, the Newark Daily Advertiser wrote "Last of the Mohegans Gone" lamenting the extinction of the tribe. The writer was not aware that Mohegans still existed then and to the present day.The story takes place in 1757 during the Seven Years' War (known in America as the French and Indian War), when France and the United Kingdom battled for control of the American and Canadian colonies. During this war, the French often allied themselves with Native American tribes in order to gain an advantage over the British, with unpredictable and often tragic results.

Book excerpt: Cooper's most famous novel, "The Last of the Mohicans" features a main character who recurs in five of his novels, Natty Bumppo, who is also known as Hawkeye. The five novels about Hawkeye's adventures in the wilderness of New York are collectively known as the "Leatherstocking Tales".In "The Last of the Mohicans", Hawkeye is now in middle life and at the height of his powers. The story tells of brutal battles with the Iroquois and their French allies, cruel captures, narrow escapes, and revenge. The beauty of the unspoiled wilderness and sorrow at its disappearance, symbolized in Hawkeye's Mohican friends, the last of their tribe, are important themes of the novel.James Fenimore Cooper was one of the most popular early American novelists. He was known for writing adventure novels. He was born in New Jersey in 1789 and raised on the New York frontier, where he set most of his stories.One day, Cooper was reading a popular novel out loud to his wife when he became angry at what he saw as its bad storytelling. He tossed the book aside and said to her, 'I could write you a better novel!' Thus began one of the most successful careers of that era. In fact, throughout most of his career, he was one of the most popular writers in the English language.
