This action-packed edition of James Fenimore Cooper's famous adventure brings the wilds of the American frontier and the drama of the French and Indian War to vivid life. Cooper was one of the first American authors to popularize fiction about the American frontier, although some such as Mark Twain criticized him roundly for some of his more absurd episodes.
