| adam_text | JAMES F E NI AlO R E COOPER
With his second novel, The Spy: A Tale of The Neutral
Ground^ published in 1821, James Fenimore Cooper
found his true voice and his most enduring subject
matter: the history of his young nation, born of
the clash between Old World and New. Eager
to prove that “American manners and American
scenes” could be a rich field for fiction, Cooper
turned to the American Revolution as a backdrop
for homegrown historical romances in the mode of
Walter Scott’s Waverley novels. It was a winning
formula: rJThe Spy quickly became America’s first great
best seller.
Set largely in the “Neutral Ground” of New York’s
Westchester County--site of the real-life intrigues of
Benedict Arnold and Alajor John André IT he Spy
traces the conflicting allegiances of patriots and
loyalists prey to marauding partisans on both sides.
Its central figure, Harvey Birch, an itinerant peddler
suspected of being a traitor to the American cause, is
the kind of outsider hero Cooper would perfect in
Natty Bumppo, a loner never fully acknowledged by
those whose survival he helps ensure. Cooper’s depic-
tion of the moral dilemmas of the Revolutionary
era is nuanced and sometimes deeply ambiguous,
befitting an author whose dubious family fortune had
been built on confiscated loyalist property, and who
had himself married into a once-prominent loyalist
clan. Full of unexpected twists, vigorous scenes of
military action, and occasional bursts of melodrama,
The Spy drives toward a conclusion that is one of the
most moving in all Cooper’s fiction. It is presented
here with C. Le Roy Baldridge’s stylish illustrations
from the 1924 edition.
Long praised for its historical accuracy, Lionel Lincoln;
ory The Lectgtter op Boston (1825) is the suspenseful
story of a native-born American serving in the British
Army. It is set against a carefully researched panorama
of the coming of the Revolution in and around
Boston, complete with vivid depictions of the battles
of Lexington and Concord and Bunker Pi ill. Once
again, issues of divided loyalty come into play:
46 Cooper was sensitive to tlae moral ambiguities
of a war many wanted simply to celebrate,” writes
acclaimed Historian Alan Taylor in His introduction.
WitH the voices of the Revolutionary generation
falling silent, He understood that fiction could reveal
these uncertainties witH a force and immediacy that
no other medium could match.”
