Their only hope of rescue lies with Hawkeye, an expert woodsman, and Uncas and Chingachgook, the last survivors of the Mohican tribe. James Fenimore Cooper's gripping tale is brought to life in graphic novel format. (front flap) The wild frontier of the British colony of New York is the scene of this spellbinding story.
