James Fenimore Cooper as an avid reader of literature imported from England decided he would write for a distinctly American readership, and so, began his "Leather Stocking" series. ‘Last of The Mohicans’ is the second book after the introduction of Natty Bumppo in ‘The Deerslayer’ but the most famous of all the titles in the group and the

"first in which the scout was made the symbol of all that was wise, heroic and romantic in the lives and characters of the white men who made the American wilderness their home. " "the most famous of the Leatherstocking Tales" (Grolier 100).



Cooper's works remain to this day classics in American literature. While 1826 first editions are the most desirable, later 19th-century editions are extremely collectible.
