A handsome antique edition of James Fenimore Cooper’s classic frontier novel, set during the French and Indian War. The Last of the Mohicans is renowned for its themes of loyalty, conflict, and survival, and remains one of the most influential works of early American historical fiction.
This 1897 volume is bound in decorative red cloth, with an ornate black and gilt-stamped design to the front board, typical of late 19th-century publishing. The richly detailed cover gives the book strong shelf presence and period character, making it particularly appealing to collectors of antique literature or decorative bindings.
A striking and atmospheric antique book, valued both for its literary importance and its visual charm.
