One of the most celebrated works of American Literature, The Last of the Mohicans is a frontier adventure story with a hint of romance to it. Through his fascinating picturization of flora and fauna, the harmonious lives of the native Americans, this book is a great read to dive deeper into history. It is inspired by the events that occurred during the French and Indian war that changed the course of the lives of Mohicans forever. The themes of interracial love and friendship, the role of religion in the lives of people still hold true, even if Cooper's portrayal of women seems shallow for today's readers.
