The Prairie: A Tale (1827) is a novel by James Fenimore Cooper, the 3rd novel written by him featuring Natty Bumppo. His fictitious frontier hero Bumppo is never called by his name, but is instead referred to as "the trapper" or "the old man." He still serves to be helpful to those in distress.

In the sequel to The Pathfinder, Hawkeye is 70 and has returned to his boyhood home at Lake Otsego.

The legendary woodsman known as the Pathfinder, his adoptive Indian father, Chingachgook, and a beautiful Colonial woman, Mabel Dunham, are swept up in a desperate race to rescue a British fort besieged by hostile French forces, and a deadly, unknown traitor.

"In 1740, as English troops seize French settlements in North America, the Huron and Delaware tribes are enlisted as mercenaries on opposite sides of the conflict. But an Indian warrior attempts to unite them. ... Like spaghetti westerns, the red westerns are classic American westerns created far, far from the American West - in this case, by Communist East Germany's legendary DEFA Film Studios."--Container.
