The Chainbearer Or The Littlepage Manuscripts, V2 is a novel written by James Fenimore Cooper. It is the second volume in a series that follows the Littlepage family as they navigate the changing landscape of early America. The story takes place in the mid-18th century and centers around the character of Chainbearer, a surveyor who is tasked with dividing up land in the newly formed United States. As he works to carry out his duties, he becomes embroiled in a complex web of relationships and rivalries that threaten to tear apart the fragile fabric of society. Along the way, he encounters a colorful cast of characters, including a group of Native Americans, a scheming landowner, and a young woman who captures his heart. Through it all, Cooper explores themes of power, greed, and the struggle for identity in a rapidly changing world. With its vivid descriptions of the American landscape and its nuanced portrayal of complex characters, The Chainbearer Or The Littlepage Manuscripts, V2 is a must-read for fans of historical fiction and classic literature.It is true that a remark or two did escape him, soon after the affair occurred, that tended to sustain my suspicions; but, on the whole, he was remarkably reserved on the subject--less from any apprehension of consequences, than from self-respect and pride of character. There was little to be apprehended, indeed; the previous murder of Chainbearer, and the unlawful nature of all the proceedings of the squatters, justifying a direct and sudden attack on the part of the posse.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
