Dr. Wayne Franklin, Scholar, on James Fenimore Cooper
Dr. Franklin is the author of the definitive biographies on Cooper
They are available here

https://yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300108057/james-fenimore-cooper

https://yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300135718/james-fenimore-cooper

James Fenimore Cooper wrote the Leatherstocking tales (Last of the Mohicans, Deer Slayer etc) and gave the world the archetypal American and hunter Nathanial Bumppo. Cooper invented the spy novel, wrote social criticism, history,  political works  and memoirs. 

Dr. Franklin begins to scratch the surface of this fascinating  and groundbreaking American author while I lead us down intellectual rabbit holes.
Bonus conversation: I talk with The Wild Huntsman team member Natty Bumppo about Cooper
