The Last of the Mohicans & Fenimore Cooper's Literary Offenses

Meer over het boek

Set during the tumultuous French and Indian War of 1757, this epic novel explores the complex relationships between Native American tribes and European powers as they vie for control of North America. It features themes of loyalty, survival, and the clash of cultures, highlighting the tragic consequences of war. Accompanying Cooper's work is Mark Twain's sharp critique, "Fenimore Cooper's Literary Offenses," which humorously targets Cooper's writing style, offering a unique juxtaposition of two literary perspectives.
