Synopsis

In the wild heart of 18th-century America, a young hunter faces the test of a lifetime.

Before he became the legendary Hawkeye of The Last of the Mohicans, Nathaniel "Deerslayer" Bumppo was a young frontiersman, untamed and untested. Set against the backdrop of the French and Indian War, The Deerslayer follows the noble hunter on his first warpath, where danger lurks not only in enemy warriors and treacherous wilderness, but also in the moral choices that will define his life.

With his unwavering sense of honor, mastery of the forest, and deep respect for Native American traditions, Deerslayer embarks on a perilous mission that will challenge his courage, loyalty, and heart. First published in 1841 as part of the Leatherstocking Tales, Cooper's novel is both an action-packed frontier adventure and a profound exploration of morality in a lawless land.

"A stirring introduction to one of literature's most enduring heroes."
– The Literary Gazette

"Cooper's evocation of the American wilderness is unsurpassed—both beautiful and dangerous."
– Historical Fiction Review

    In "Beyond the Wall of Sleep", an intern in a mental hospital relates his experiences with Joe Slater, a backward Catskills mountain man and now inmate at a hospital for the criminally insane. The inmate was having very strange and vivid dreams which he described in a way seemingly impossible for a man of his limited intellect. The intern decides to use a device he built but never tested, a device that could be used for two-way telepathic communication to monitor the man's dreams. What he discovers is both astonishing and frightening.

    John Davys Beresford was born on 17th March 1873.  His life was blighted by infantile paralysis which left him partially disabled. 
    After an education at Oundle school he trained to be an architect.  However, he quickly decided that his life was to be centred on a literary career.  His first offerings were in drama and as a journalist. 
    As well as being a book reviewer for the Manchester Guardian he contributed to New Statesman, The Spectator, Westminster Gazette, and the Theosophist magazine The Aryan Path.   
    His spiritual journey in early adulthood had claimed him as an agnostic, in defiance of his clergyman father.  This view he later abandoned in preference to describing himself as a Theosophist and a pacifist. 
    As well as many novels, many themed with spiritual and philosophical elements.  Beresford was also a gifted short story writer particularly across the science-fiction, horror and ghost genres. 
    All of these elements helped him to obtain a prominent place in Edwardian Literary London. 
    John Davys Beresford died on the 2nd February 1947. He was 73.

    François-Anatole Thibault was born on the 16th April 1844 in Paris, France, the son of a bookseller and bibliophile. 
    He studied at the Collège Stanislas, a private Catholic school, and after graduating joined his father in the bookstore, which specialised in works on the French Revolution.  Several years later he secured a position as cataloguer at Bacheline-Deflorenne and at Lemerre before being appointed librarian for the French Senate in 1876. 
    His literary career had begun as a journalist and as a poet before publishing his novel ‘Le Crime de Sylvestre Bonnard’ in 1881.  Praised for its elegant prose, it won him a prestigious prize from the Académie Française, which later elected him to its storied ranks. 
    His works were profound and thoughtful and often couched in surreal and outlandish expressions; whether penguins baptized by a near-blind Abbott transformed themselves into humans or of a guardian angel who becomes an atheist, his stories turned established thought into startling literature. 
    His short stories run in the same vein.  The premise may seem plausible but his distinctive style turns them into an individual viewpoint which invokes both discussion and admiration. 
    In his private life his relationships with women were often turbulent.  A Socialist, he was a fervent supporter of the Russian Revolution and the early years of the French Communist party. 
    He was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1921 but the following year his entire canon of works was placed on the prohibited list of the Catholic Church, which he thought of as a credit to his name. 
    Anatole France died on the 12th October 1924 in Tours.  He was 80.
