Cooper's conservation ideas about society are reflected in many of his writings. His work show his concern for individual freedom and the rights of property owners. He declared that he believed in democracy, but he feared that majority rule would bring disorder and injustice. He thought the United States would be governed by a small aristocracy of cultured and public spirited landowners, and wrote several nonfiction works criticizing American life.

I have read all 5 of the leatherstocking tails, by Cooper. I was deeply disappointed by "the Last of the Mohicans", starring Daniel Day Lewis about 10? years ago. The film didn't follow the book. Natty Bumpo (pathfinder) got the girl, and the other girl died. Totally NOT Cooper's book. In Hollywood, the good guy gets the girl. But in ALL of Cooper's tales of Pathfinder (Hawkeye, Natty Bumpo), the hero is a man of the forest and will never be happy in the arms of a girl... he avoids relationships. He returns to the wild land every time. Going further and further west. Try to read LAST OF THE MOHICANS first. It is the most exciting, and it is a love story between the young Incus ? (the last of the mohicans) and the white girl he can never have. Then read the other 4 novels in the order of the time period. NOT the order they were written in. I think the last one to read would be "THE PRARIE" where Chincachcook is old, and drinks a lot, and dies an unhappy Indian in a white man's world. GOOD FOR YOU.... a person that reads!!!
