Originally published in 1967. In this critical survey of the
fiction of James Fenimore Cooper, George Dekker devotes a good deal
of attention to Cooper's politics. He also explores the
assimilation and development of the historical novel as first
perfected by Sir Walter Scott. Cooper's major formal innovations in
the field of historical fiction were, like Scott's, something more
than mere experiments: they were made because American social and
political developments differed radically from those of Scott's
Europe and so demanded a different formal expression.
