Synopsis
The legend starts by Cora and Alice, little girlss of the British Colonel Murno, being taken by Mayor duncan Heyward out of Fort Edward to visit their father at Fort William Henry. The three white people decide not to go with the rest of the group but to use the service of an Indian guide, Magua. They do not realise that Magua is an Huron on the side of tehe French, and that he hates the British and colonel Munro in particular. He plans to make Cora his wife. Fortunately, the party comes across Hawkeya a white man who knows Indians and chingachgook and Uncas, the last twobeing the lone survivors of the Mohicanstribe. Hawkeya rescue the girls and the mayor but MAgua gets away. They realize that he will return with a party of Hurons and this he does. There follows a succession of skirmishes, battles and daring escapes, with Magua eventually taking the girls prisoner again. At the top of a mountain, Magua asks Cora to choose between being his wife and being killed but in the nick of time, so it seems, Uncas arrives. However, as he is trying to rescue Cora, she is killed by one of Magua’s companions. Uncas kills the Indian, but is killed himself by Magua. Hawkeye chases Magua, who leaps from one cliff to another. He soon misses his step and falls to his death.
Personal Opinion
I did not like the book as it is about Mohicans and it is not a topic that I like. It's easy to read but I wouldn't read it again.
