Set during the French and Indian Wars, The Deerslayer vividly captures the
essence of both the murderous humanity and the natural beauty that distinguished
America's founding. The last of Cooper's famous Leatherstocking Tales, it is
first chronologically in the frontier adventures of the backwoods scout Natty
Bumppo. Amid a terrain largely inspired by Cooper's own boyhood, Natty's
initiation in the moral codes of wilderness society is examined in what is,
according to D. H. Lawrence, "the loveliest and best" of the Leatherstocking
series.
This Modern Library Paperback Classic is set from the definitive text
established by James Franklin Beard and James P. Elliott, which is the Approved
Text of the Center for Scholarly Editions of the Modern Language Association.
