Negative Positive
Title: this is a novel, not history
Review: I am compelled to comment because of a previous review that called this book a "study" and believed it to be an accurate representation of people, place, and time. This is a novel, nothing more. Cooper represents his own time period's thought process within the writing of a Gothic novel. If you want to know more about the Mohawk, Oneida, and Mahican people please read a more recent history and do NOT rely on fiction.
Is the review positive or negative?
