In 1790, the family moved to Lake Otsego, in upstate New York. Early experiences in a frontier town gave Cooper the background for The Pioneers (1823), among other frontier novels. After being expelled from Yale College, in 1806 he tried to run away to sea, but his father intervened and got him a commission in the United States Navy. He sailed twice to England and served at a frontier outpost on Lake Ontario before being assigned to recruit sailors in New York City, where he met his future wife. After the deaths of his father and older brothers left him heavily in debt, Cooper cast about for a reliable source of income, and his career as a writer began. His first tale, Precaution , was published in 1820; the work and its reception were agreeable enough to encourage Cooper to continue, and his next novel

The distinguished Cooper scholar James Franklin Beard (1919-1989) began organizing "The Writings of James Fenimore Cooper" in the late 1960's, as his work on publishing his monumental Letters and Journals of James Fenimore Cooper came to fulfillment. Professor Beard's intention was to provide readers with sound scholarly editions of Cooper's major works, based wherever possible on authorial manuscripts. To date, "The Writings of James Fenimore Cooper" (or "the Cooper Edition") has made available both hard-cover and paperback texts of all the Leather-Stocking Tales and of many of Cooper's other best-known novels, as well as some of his most important works of political and social commentary.

"Home As Found" is a Web Site dedicated to disseminating information about James Fenimore Cooper on the Internet and the World Wide Web. The name "Home As Found" was suggested to me by Wayne Franklin, when I mentioned that I was planning to construct a Cooper Home Page. I like it not only because it evokes Cooper's novel of 1838 but because it suggests that the visitor shouldn't expect too much order and tidiness in the place; things are likely to be a little chaotic. And so they are. Adventures In England 1. A Visit to St. James Place 2. The Sutton Edition of Ways of the Hour Biographical Information ...

He was the first important American writer to draw on the subjects and landscape of his native land in order to create a vivid myth of frontier life. In 1790 Cooperfs family moved to Cooperstown, N.Y., a frontier settlement founded by his father near Otsego Lake. The landscape and history of the area was to greatly influence many of his most famous works. Sent to Yale at 13, Cooper was dismissed for a disciplinary reason in his third year. Soon after he went to sea; commissioned as a U.S. midshipman, he served until 1811, at which time he married and settled into life as a gentleman farmer. Cooperfs literary career, which covers a period of 30 years and includes more than 50 publications, began in 1820 with the appearance of Precaution. Imitative of the English novel of manners, this book failed to gain an audience; but his next work, The Spy (1821), a patriotic story of the American Revolution, was an immediate success. With

At the height of his fame in the early nineteenth century, James Fenimore Cooper was America's foremost novelist and one of the most successful writers in the world. Judgments on his stature as a novelist have been less generous since that time, but few would dispute the cultural significance of his innovative tales. Building on the example of the British novelist Sir Walter Scott, Cooper wrote the first American historical novels and in the process made subjects such as Native Americans, the western wilderness, and the democratic political system compelling and popular topics for fiction. Cooper was raised in Cooperstown, the village his father founded in the forests of upstate New York. His third novel
