Book from Project Gutenberg: The Last of the Mohicans A Narrative of 1757 The Last of the Mohicans: A Narrative of 1757 (1826) is an historical novel by James Fenimore Cooper. It is the second book of the Leatherstocking Tales pentalogy and the best known to contemporary audiences. The Pathfinder, published 14 years later in 1840, is its sequel. The Last of the Mohicans is set in 1757, during the French and Indian War (the Seven Years' War), when France and Great Britain battled for control of North America. During this war, the French depended on its Native American allies to help fight the more numerous British colonists in the Northeast frontier areas. The novel was one of the most popular in English in its time, and it remains widely read in American literature courses. It has been adapted numerous times for films, TV movies and cartoons.
