Sinopsis

Excerpt from Deerslayer, Vol. 1 of 3: A Tale

This book has not been written without many misgivings as to its probable reception. To carry one and the same character through five several works would seem to be a wilful over drawing on the good-nature of the public, and many persons may very reasonably suppose it an act, of itself, that ought to invite a rebuke. To this natural objection, the author can only say that, if he has committed a grave fault on this occasion, his readers are in some measure answerable for it. The favourable manner in Which the more advanced career, and the death, of leather-stocking, were received, has created, in the mind of the author, at least, a sort of ne cessity for giving some account of his younger days. In short, the pictures of his life, such as they are, were already so complete as to excite some little desire to see the study,' from Which they have all been drawn.
