Publisher's Note Set in the 1740s when upper New York state was the heartland of the powerful Iroquois confederacy, it relates the coming to manhood of Hawkeye, the noble white man who kills to perfection, his friendship with Chingachgook, the noble red savage, and their bloody red struggles with scalp-hunting whites and the supposedly ignoble Iroquois in the shores of Lake Glimmerglass.
Industry Reviews "Cooper's art has some defects. In one place in 'Deerslayer', and in the restricted space of two thirds of a page, Cooper has scored 114 offenses against literary art out of a possible 115. It breaks the record." North American Review - Mark Twain (07/18/1995)
