I had not read Fenimore Cooper, other than in comic form, before this time. The editor of these extracts apparently had little regard for Fenimore Cooper as a man and minimally more for his complete books. He did, however, choose some eminently readable extracts from three of the "Leatherstocking" stories: The Deerslayer, The Last of the Mohicans and The Pathfinder. As a boy growing up in the 50s and 60s, I formed a great love for the books of Ballantyne, Strang, Henty and Kingston. It is a love that has continued into my 70s. I still dip into my collection of some of these authors and, as of today, I will seek out and read the Fenimore Cooper stories that I neglected as a kid, remembering all the time that his usage and descriptives of American native peoples was of its time and coloured by white immigrants' seemingly unslakable thirst for land and property that they would not have to pay for.
