The Last of the Mohicans
1)SummaryThe Last of the Mohicans is the 1826 was the fifth of six book. In The Last of Mohicans, cooper writes about the fight between the France and the Britist in North America in 1757. At Fort Edward, General Webb receives news of a French attack under Montcalm is coming to Fort William Henty which is only guarded by the small force of the Scotsman Monro. Captain Duncan Heyward is dispatched to take Munro's daughters to that fort along with the renegade Native American runner magua, know as Le Renard Subtil . We follow their journey as they meet the magnificent Chingachgook whose son is the last of the mohican tribe, and find that Magua is actually preventing their progress and is allied to the French. We meet the character Hawkeye and follow him and his Indian companions as they become involved in the bloody war. Hawkeye is seemingly the last decentwhite man as he respects the Indian's customs in this exciting adventure story full of battles, captures and rescues. 2).I think this book is easy to understand and I enjoy to read this book. In this book, I really like the Hawkeye character, because Hawkeye is both a character and a symbol. Hawkeye also symbolizes the myth of the hero woodsman. Excluded from the novel's love plots, Hawkeye takes part in a different sort of human relationsip by creating a father- son dynamic with uncas.The Last of the Mohicans emphasizes the "fiction" in historical fiction.The book is comically littered with contradictory tones and gross inaccuracies in terms of frontier life.Also begins innocently enough, with an introduction that tell us that the setting is the third year of the French and Indian war. The author's use of historical facts allows the reader to more vividly imagine what is being described, and allows Cooper to draw on the reader's knowledge of the French and Indian war.This book is good and i'm happy reading this book.
