Description

Enter the captivating world of American literature with "Last of the Mohicans," a remarkable addition to the renowned Leatherstocking Tales series by James Fenimore Cooper.
In the year 1757 amidst the turmoil of the French-Indian Wars, this unforgettable tale follows the gripping journey of British Major Heyward as he undertakes the perilous task of escorting the General's daughters through the treacherous wilderness, guided by a Native American scout. Little do they know that this trust will be betrayed, leading them into the clutches of the Hurons and French.
Two valiant Mohicans and their unwavering white scout companion, Hawkeye, rescue the Major and the women. Together, they embark on a relentless odyssey of war, imminent danger, desperate flight, heart-wrenching loss, revenge, and, ultimately, a sacrifice that will forever alter their lives.
Experience the grandeur and intensity of Last of the Mohicans, an enduring masterpiece that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish.

    Great product!

    The guide for The Last of the Mohicans is broken down into a variety of different assignments which has been perfect for my young man who would rather be doing anything else than writing an essay about a literature book. Thanks for a great product!
