Книга «The Pathfinder». Автор - Джеймс Фенімор Купер

Vigorous, self-reliant, amazingly resourceful and moral, Natty Bumppo is the prototype of the Western hero. A faultless arbiter of wilderness justice, he hates middle-class hypocrisy. But he finds his love divided between the woman he has pledged to protect on a treacherous journey and the untouched forest that sustains him in his beliefs. A fast-paced narrative full of adventure and majestic descriptions of early frontier life, Indian raiders and defenceless outposts, The Pathfinder set the standard for epic action literature.
