Wyandott is a historical novel set during the American Revolution and tells the story of a derelict Indian "Saucy Nick", also called Wyandott ("Great Chief"), in the remote woods of upstate New York, who stands between a small group of settlers and an Indian tribe that want to slaughter them. Wyandott 's depictions violate stereotypes of Native Americans and novel rejects the more established history of the New York border war during the Revolution. James Fenimore Cooper (1789-1851) was a prolific and popular American writer of the early 19th century. His historical romances of frontier and Indian life in the early American days created a unique form of American literature. Before embarking on his career as a writer, Cooper served in the U. S. Navy as a Midshipman, which greatly influenced many of his novels and other writings. The novel that launched his career was The Spy, a tale about counterespionage set during the Revolutionary War. He also wrote numerous sea stories, and his best-known works are five historical novels of the frontier period known as the Leatherstocking Tales. Among his most famous works is the Romantic novel The Last of the Mohicans, often regarded as his masterpiece.

From merely surviving the loss of his shipmates and the embayment of his ship within The Reef, protagonist and role-model Mark Woolston goes on to thrive by his own industry. Following a regional volcanic upheaval which raises new land, he founds a similarly industrious and thriving colony after escaping from, then returning to, The Reef. The outnumbered colonists must defend their new homes and possessions against natives who covet the new land.

The Spy is a tale about counterespionage set during the Revolutionary War, with main character Harvey Birch, British loyalist who is in fact a George Washington's spy. The plot ranges back and forth over the neutral ground between the Continental and British armies with great haste and sweep. The action takes place so near to great events and the characters are all invested with something of the dusky light of heroes, while George Washington moves among them like an unsuspected god. This was the earliest American novel to win wide and permanent fame and may be said to have begun the type of romance which dominated U. S. fiction for 30 years.

Miles Wallingford Jr. is son of wealthy New York landowners, who chooses to go to sea after the death of his parents. In "Afloat and Ashore" focus is on the challenging relationship between Miles and Neb, a runaway slave who stows away aboard the ship and only is left unpunished when Miles claims him as his own slave. The two become close allies aboard the ship, but the racial and power differences between Miles, who becomes a petty officer aboard the vessel, and Neb, who is confined to the role of regular seaman. A sequel "Miles Wallingford" continues to follow the maritime adventures of Miles Wallingford Jr, and his long-time friends Neb and Lucy Harding, and resolves many thematic and plot elements left unsettled in Afloat and Ashore. Novels are partially autobiographical, inspired by J. Fenimore Cooper's own experiences as a sailor.

The American Revolution comes to vivid life in two dramatic tales of espionage, intrigue, and romance from the author of The Last of Mohicans With his second novel, The Spy A Tale of the Neutral Ground, in 1821, James Cooper (the Fenimore would come later) found his true voice and what became his most enduring subject matter: the history of his young nation, born of the clash between Old World and New. Set largely in Westchester County--site of the real-life intrigues of Benedict Arnold and Major John Andre--The Spy traces the conflicting allegiances of rebels and loyalists, with the supposed loyalist spy Harvey Birch (actually in the service of George Washington) finding himself caught up in conflicts between friendship and duty as he moves between the two sides. Washington himself makes an incognito appearance as the mysterious "Mr. Harper." Cooper continued in the same vein with Lionel Lincoln; Or, The Leaguer of Boston (1825), a carefully researched panorama of the coming of the Revolution, complete with detailed depictions of the battles of Lexington and Concord and Bunker Hill. With the hero a native-born American serving in the British Army, issues of loyalty are again complex, and some American reviewers, not for the last time, found Cooper's politics a bit too ambiguous for comfort.

Djupt inne i skogarna i nordöstra Amerika har en engelsk major fått i uppdrag att eskortera de två överstedöttrarna Cora och Alice från Fort Edward till Fort William Henry. När de blir förrådda av sin vägvisare Magua får de hjälp av den modiga spejaren Falköga, även känd som Natty Bumppo, och hans lojala följeslagare Chingachgook och Uncas, de sista av den mohikanska stammen. Genom de tre vännernas räddningsaktion blir de indragna i de blodiga striderna mellan irokeser och franska och brittiska trupper som söker kontroll över området. Romanen presenterar en gripande skildring av ett försvinnande släkte och slutet på dess sätt att leva i de stora amerikanska skogarna. James Fenimore Cooper (17891851) var en amerikansk författare som är mest känd för sina historiska romaner om Amerikas ursprungsbefolkning och nybyggare. "Den siste mohikanen" är hans mest lästa och hyllade roman. Serien består av fem böcker som publicerades mellan 1823 och 1841. Romanerna utgör en berättelse om livet bland indianer och vita pionjärer under 1700-talet genom sina skildringar av huvudrollen Natty Bumppos äventyr. Böckerna täcker hela hans vuxna liv, från ung mandom till gammal ålder, även om böckerna inte skrevs eller publicerades i kronologisk ordning.

Stigfinnaren Natty Bumppo är en fascinerande gestalt som vet allt om Nordamerikas vildmarker. Han arbetar med att guida unga damer genom farliga skogar och stormar på Ontariosjön. Natty blir mot sin vilja kär i en av damerna och den bitvis sammanbitne stigfinnaren öppnar sig som aldrig förr. -
