* Beautifully illustrated with atmospheric paintings by renowned artists, The Prairie is chronologically the last of the five Leatherstocking Tale novels although it was published before 'The Pathfinder' and 'The Deerslayer'. It's the gripping story of battles with Indians and between warring Indian tribes. Natty, the central character from earlier novels, is as helpful as ever at getting the various characters out of trouble whenever possible.
* Just as accessible and enjoyable for today's modern readers as it would have been when first published well over a century ago, the novel is one of the great works of American literature and continues to be widely read and studied throughout the world.
* This meticulous digital edition from Heritage Illustrated Publishing is a faithful reproduction of the original text and is enhanced with images of classic works of art carefully selected by our team of professional editors.
