Excerpt from The Deerslayer; Or the First War Path, Vol. 1 of 2: A Tale
The intention has been to put the sisters in strong con trast; one, admirable in person, clever, filled with the pride of beauty, erring, and fallen; the other, barely provided with sufficient capacity to know good from evil, instinct, notwithstanding, with the virtues of woman, reverencing and loving God, and yielding only to the weakness of her sex, in admiring personal attractions in one too coarse and unobservant to distinguish or to understand the quiet, gentle feeling in his favor.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, a classic in American literature, delves into the rich tapestry of frontier life in 18th century New York. It unfolds against the backdrop of vast forests and unspoiled wilderness, where the clash between civilization and the untamed spirit of nature rages. At its heart is the iconic figure of Natty Bumppo, a skilled hunter and tracker known as Leatherstocking, who epitomizes the resilience and resourcefulness of the American frontiersman. Through his eyes, we witness the challenges and triumphs of living on the edge of civilization, the beauty of the natural world, and the complex relationships between settlers and Native Americans. This book explores the themes of identity, belonging, and the search for one's place in a rapidly changing world, offering a profound meditation on the American experience and the enduring power of the human spirit.
