Published in the 1826, this historical novel is second in Cooper’s Leatherstocking Tales antology of heroic scouts. It is set in the background of the French and Indian war (seven-years war) during 1757. In line with 19th century?s tradition of creating historically inspired stories, it specifically focuses on the one long battle between France and England for the possession of American and Canadian colonies. In this battle, the French allied themselves with the Native American tribes in order to gain an advantage over the English. The unarmed massacre, the kidnapping of two sisters, and the rescue by Hawk-eye and his two friends, the Mohicans (Uncas and Chingachoom), form the core storyline of this novel. Cooper’s endeavor in recreating history through this novel proved successful as it is widely read and loved in American literature till date.
