The Deerslayer: The First War Path
by
James Fenimore Cooper
|
"His rifle was in perfect condition, the handle of his hunting-knife was neatly carved, his powder-horn was ornamented with suitable devices lightly cut into the material, and his shot-pouch was decorated with wampum."
Published in 1841 First in the Leatherstocking chronology but the last to be written, we meet the hero in his youth as he saves the Hutter sisters from certain death.
