His historical romances about colonial and Native American life, set between the 1600s and the early 1800s, brought him fame and fortune. He grew up in Cooperstown, New York, which his father founded, and returned there for his last fifteen years. The Last of the Mohicans, from 1826, is the best known of his Leatherstocking novels.
