The second of Cooper's five Leatherstocking Tales, this is the one which has consistently captured the imagination of generations since it was first published in 1826. Its success lies partly in the historical role Cooper gives to his Indian characters, against the grain of accumulated racial hostility, and partly in his evocation of the wild beautiful landscapes of North America which the French and the British fought to control throughout the eighteenth century. At the centre of the novel is the celebrated 'Massacre' of British troops and their families by Indian allies of the French at Fort William Henry in 1757. Around this historical event, Cooper built a romantic fiction of captivity, sexuality, and heroism, in which the destiny of the Mohicans Chingachgook and his son Uncas is inseparable from the lives of Alice and Cora Munro and of Hawkeye the frontier scout. The controlled, elaborate writing gives natural pace to the violence of the novel's action: like the nature whose plundering Copper laments, the books placid surfaces conceal inexplicable and deathly forces.

评分 评分这半年来学习工作都很忙,差不多用了两个月才看完这本书。总体来说还不错,如果是在小学,初中那个看小说的高潮期看这种书应该会比较喜欢。全书的高潮在最后,在那里才想起来书名的含义,也不自主地想假如男2号(实际上应该是男1号)和女1号不献身一下,这本书就连高潮也没了。...
评分歐美的財富積累很大程度上是掠奪,無論是北美還是南美,由於白人的入侵使得當地的原住民銷聲匿跡。光看小說的名字就知道是個驚心動魄的悲劇故事。那些為被開墾的土地上的人用生命保衛家園,結局卻都一樣,不甚唏噓。
