Fenimore Cooper is famous as the author of many swash-buckling books such as Hiawatha, and this 1838 travel journal certainly lives up to his reputation for page turning excitement: by the first chapter his coach is already being attacked by banditti on remote mountain passes! This journal is also unique in being written by an American, without the prejudices and cultural baggage of the English.
