About the Author

James Fenimore Cooper (September 15, 1789 - September 14, 1851) was a prolific and popular American writer of the early 19th century.His historical romances of frontier and Indian life in the early American days created a unique form of American literature. He lived most of his life in Cooperstown, New York, which was founded by his father William on property that he owned. Cooper was a lifelong member of the Episcopal Church and, in his later years, contributed generously to it. He attended Yale University for three years, where he was a member of the Linonian Society, but was expelled for misbehavior.

Editorial Reviews

A charming experiment in fiction, Satanstoe combines nostalgic autobiographical recollections, pictures of manners, action and adventure, and social philosophy within its narrative of colonial life and society in New York State in the middle of the 18th century. The text is approved by the Committee on Scholarly Editions of the MLA, and the volume includes an historical introduction and explanatory notes. Paper edition (unseen), $14.95. Annotation c.
