Question: Precaution (1820) is the first novel written by American author James Fenimore Cooper, the American reading public responded most to which Narrative of 1757, a historical novel, printed in which year?
Context: Precaution (1820) is the first novel written by American author James Fenimore Cooper.  It was written in imitation of contemporary English domestic novels like those of Jane Austen and Amelia Opie, and it did not meet with contemporary success.  Cooper went on to have great success with works such as "The Pathfinder" (1841) and "The Deerslayer" (1840).  The American reading public responded most to "The Last of the Mohicans" (1826). The Pathfinder, or The Inland Sea is a historical novel by James Fenimore Cooper, first published in 1840.  It is the fourth novel Cooper wrote featuring Natty Bumppo, his fictitious frontier hero, and the third chronological episode of the "Leatherstocking Tales".  The inland sea of the title is Lake Ontario. Wyandotté is a historical novel published by James Fenimore Cooper in 1843.  The novel is set in New York state during the American Revolution.  The main character of the novel is an Indian, "Saucy Nick" also called Wyandotté ("Great Chief"), whose depictions violate stereotypes of Native Americans. Lionel Lincoln is a historical novel by James Fenimore Cooper, first published in 1825.  Set in the American Revolutionary War, the novel follows Lionel Lincoln, a Boston-born American of British noble descent who goes to England and returns a British soldier, and is forced to deal with the split loyalties in his family and friends to the American colonies and the British homeland.  At the end of the novel, he returns to England with his wife Cecil, another American born cousin. The Eclipse is an autobiographical vignette by James Fenimore Cooper that was written between 1833 and 1838, recounting his own experience witnessing a total solar eclipse in Cooperstown on the morning of June 16, 1806.  It was published posthumously in the September 1869 issue of "Putnam's Monthly Magazine".  Susan Fenimore Cooper, the author's daughter, found it among his papers. "Fenimore Cooper's Literary Offenses" is an 1895 essay by Mark Twain, written as a satire and criticism of the writings of James Fenimore Cooper.  Drawing on examples from "The Deerslayer" and "The Pathfinder" from Cooper's Leatherstocking Tales, the essay claims Cooper is guilty of verbose writing, poor plotting, glaring inconsistencies, overused clichés, cardboard characterizations, and a host of similar "offenses." The Deerslayer, or The First War-path (1841) was the last of James Fenimore Cooper's "Leatherstocking Tales" to be written.  Its 1740-1745 time period makes it the first installment chronologically and in the lifetime of the hero of the Leatherstocking tales, Natty Bumppo.  The novel's setting on Otsego Lake in central, upstate New York, is the same as that of "The Pioneers", the first of the "Leatherstocking Tales" to be published (1823).  "The Deerslayer" is considered to be the prequel to the rest of the series.  Fenimore Cooper begins his work by relating the astonishing advance of civilization in New York State, which is the setting of four of his five "Leatherstocking Tales". The Last of the Mohicans is a 1992 American epic historical drama, set in 1757 during the French and Indian War.  It was directed by Michael Mann, based on James Fenimore Cooper's eponymous 1826 novel and George B. Seitz's 1936 film adaptation, owing more to the latter than the novel.  The film stars Daniel Day-Lewis, Madeleine Stowe, and Jodhi May, with Russell Means, Wes Studi, Eric Schweig, and Steven Waddington in supporting roles.  It was produced by Morgan Creek Pictures. The Last of the Mohicans: A Narrative of 1757 (1826) is a historical novel by James Fenimore Cooper. Lieutenant-Colonel George Monro (sometimes spelled 'Munro') (1700 – 1757) was a Scottish-Irish soldier.  He was an officer in the British Army best remembered for his resolute but ultimately unsuccessful defence of Fort William Henry in 1757 during the Seven Years' War / French and Indian War and the subsequent massacre of his garrison at the hands of France’s Indian allies.  These events were made famous by James Fenimore Cooper in his novel "The Last of the Mohicans" (and subsequent TV/film adaptations).
