Marvel Illustrated Last of the Mohicans

Edition excerpt from Marvel Illustrated: The Last of the Mohicans (2008): The first great hero in American fiction-in the first true American epic! Across the Eastern Wilderness rages the French and Indian War-with only a handful of English and Colonial troops standing in the path of the relentless army of General Montcalm and his fierce Iroquois allies. But arrayed against the invaders are Hawkeye, the fabled frontier scout, and his noble friends Chingachgook and Uncas, the only two survivors of the Mohican tribe. THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS is a tale of bravery and barbarism - of heroism amid the horrors of the final great war fought between the British and the French - and their Indian allies - for a land destined one day to seize its freedom in its own hands. James Fenimore Cooper's famous novel has been adapted with all its legendary excitement intact by award-winning writer Roy Thomas, and artists Steven Kurth and Denis Medri.
