The Last of the Mohicans

The Last of the Mohicans is one of the most famous tales of pioneer American adventure. Set during the French and Indian War, Mohicans tells the tale of the journey of two daughters to meet their father, a colonel, at Fort William Henry. The road is long and dangerous, and they, along with their American and Native guides, encounter adventure at each step.
Mohicans is actually the second book in a pentalogy, the Leatherstocking Tales pentalogy. While the pentalogy saw success in its time, today Mohicans is by far the best-known of the books.

    When it is re­mem­bered that the Dutch (who first set­tled New York), the English, and the French, all gave ap­pel­la­tions to the tribes that dwelt within the coun­try which is the scene of this story, and that the In­di­ans not only gave dif­fer­ent names to their en­e­mies, but fre­quently to them­selves, the cause of the con­fu­sion will be un­der­stood.
