Betrayed--trapped in a death-ravaged alien land--beautiful, innocent sisters Cora and Alice Munro, singer David Gamut, and Major Duncan Heyward are running blind through a murderous nightmare where capture, torture, and bloody enemies lurk in every tree, every shadow--
Their only chance lies with three strangers who emerge from the wildlands: Hawkeye, the lethal manhunter who has turned his back on the world; Great Serpent, self-exiled lord of a doomed nation; and Bounding Elk, a young warrior of nearly superhuman grace, speed and strength. And the destinies of refugees and heroes will explode beside a holy lake, when the savage armies of terror must face and fight a living legend--
For one of these seven is the lost godking of the Mohicans....

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Newly abridged by Timothy Meis, James Fenimore Cooper's The Last of the Mohicans comes to life under the paintbrush of N.C. Wyeth, with illustrations originally published in 1919. The artist offers readers a close-up view of the French and Indian War, in paintings such as British colonel Duncan's struggle against a Huron warrior or the Mohican Chingachgook similarly fighting off another Huron warrior in the clearing of a wood. Wyeth's paintings also accompany Meis's adaptation of Daniel DeFoe's Robinson Crusoe, due out in February.
