I am 11th grade as well, and I had to read this book for class, too. However, I read the series of books about Natty Bumppo on my own time. I'm not sure who posted the comment about Mr. Cooper's dialect being off, but I beg to differ. Seeing on how he lived during this period, I'm sure that he knew what he was talkin about when he published his books.
The Pioneers can be slow, at first, and Cooper's dialouge is off, but he has a vision that a reader can see only with his minds eye. Cooper is the first enviromentalist of his time, but he uses action and adventure to promote his message.
hi!
What do you think is the funniest part of the book?
and the sadest part?
for the funny part, i liked the first scenealmost, when the judge realizes he actually shot a guy...
