Frank on the Prairie
After serving in the American Civil War, Charles Austin Fosdick began penning a series of adventure novels for boys under the nom de plume Harry Castlemon. While the early novels drew heavily on his own battlefield experiences, later entries in the series put plucky protagonist Frank in a number of different settings and action-packed plots. This volume of the Gunboat Series pits Frank against a number of foes, ranging from ravenous grizzy bears to unscrupulous frontiersmen.
The Deerslayer
The deadly crack of a long rifle and the piercing cries of Indians on the warpath shatter the serenity of beautiful Lake Glimmerglass. Danger has invaded the vast forests of upper New York State as Deerslayer and his loyal Mohican friend Chingachgook attempt the daring rescue of an Indian maiden imprisoned in a Huron camp. Soon they are caught in the cross fire between a cunning enemy and two white bounty hunters who mercilessly kill for profit. The last of the Leatherstocking Tales to be written, though first in the chronology of the hero?s life, The Deerslayer is James Fenimore Cooper?s masterpiece. A fine combination of romance, adventure, and morality, this classic novel of the frontier is an eloquent beginning for Cooper?s great wildernes saga?and an unforgettable introduction to the famous character who has been said to embody the conscience of America: the noble woodsman Deerslayer.
