Pride of the Mohicans
Description:
It is the year 1756 and the American Colonies are engulfed in the conflict known as the French and Indian War. As two Great Powers contend for control of the continent, the common people of America find themselves trapped between the armies of the British and the French. Into the frontier lands west of the Hudson come three men, last of a vanishing people, heroes for these turbulent times, determined to fight for what is right, for those in need-- and against the selfish and cruel forces that seek to exploit and destroy America in its infancy. Wise Chingachgook... fierce Uncas... and a man known by many names: La Longue Carabine... the Pathfinder... Nathaniel Poe... He is HAWKEYE. Here are four rousing, all-new tales of that dynamic trio who brought justice to the wilderness of Colonial America, by four of the most celebrated names in all of adventure storytelling: Jim Beard (Monster Aces; Sgt Janus, Spirit Breaker); Ron Fortier (Captain Hazzard; Brother Bones); Frank Schildiner (Tales of the Shadowmen; The Avenger) and I. A. Watson (Sherlock Holmes, Consulting Detective; Robin Hood, King of Sherwood). Created and Edited by Van Allen Plexico (Blackthorn; Gideon Cain), this all-new anthology is based upon THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS novel by James Fenimore Cooper and the 1992 film starring Daniel Day-Lewis and directed by Michael Mann.
