James Fenimore Cooper was one of America's earliest and most loved
authors. In his lifetime he wrote more than thirty novels.
For the pleasure of our readers and the fans of Mr. Cooper, we offer
all five installments in his Leatherstocking series. The novels
in that series include the most popular and widely-enjoyed works of
James F. Cooper. The five installments begin with The Pioneers
and include The Last of the Mohicans, The Prairie, The
Pathfinder, and The Deerslayer.
For the benefit of the owners of older PDAs, we publish each of
these novels in multi-volume sets. Each of these volumes is an
IBC preview edition.
The Pioneers (1823)
The Pioneers was the first in a series of five novels that is
collectively known as the
Leatherstocking Tales. The series continued
with The Last of the Mohicans, The Prairie, The
Pathfinder, and The Deerslayer. This novel introduces the
character of Natty
"Hawkeye" Bumpo. Although Natty contines as a character in
all five novels of the series, the installments of the Leatherstocking
Series were not published in sequential time order. As a sequential
history of the life of Mr. Bumpo, the sequence would be
The Deerslayer, The Last of the Mohicans,
The Pathfinder, The Pioneers, and The Prairie.
Our edition is published in two volumes. Although the original publication
of this novel occurred in 1823, this edition begins with an introduction
that was written by the author at a later date. This introduction makes
reference not only to historical events that occurred after the original
publication, but also responds to criticism and some popular theories about
the historical basis of the novel.
