A tight and fairly attractive first edition, first state, of this uncredited ("By the Author of 'Precaution'") historical novel and the first of the five "Leatherstocking Tales." Proper first state points present ("E.B. Clayton, Printer" cited on both title pages). Though rebound as a single volume and priced accordingly, this is a decent, quite handleable first edition of this scarce early title. American Imprints 12254. BAL 3829. WRIGHT I 671.
