Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. James Fenimore Cooper. The Deerslayer. Edited and adapted by Marjorie Holmes. New York: J. J. Little & Ives Co., 1954. Copyright ©1954 by Globe Book Company, Inc. A 1954 Library Edition issue in J. J. Little & Ives' decorative doubles series, pairing The Deerslayer with David Copperfield on the spine, an attractive mid-century binding line marketed to schools and libraries. This edition features the 1954 Globe Book Company copyright and marks the first printing of Marjorie Holmes's adaptation, which simplifies Cooper's 1841 frontier adventure for classroom use while retaining its rich period tone and key illustrations. Hardcover in Very Good+ condition: light shelfwear to spine ends and corners; patterned fleur-de-lis boards and matching endpapers bright and crisp; pages clean, unmarked, and tightly bound. Designed for institutional durability and aesthetic appeal, with gilt-stamped maroon spine and decorative paneling. A handsome example of mid-century educational publishing and a fine presentation copy for Cooper collectors. James Fenimore Cooper (1789-1851) was among the first major American novelists, best known for his Leatherstocking Tales, including The Last of the Mohicans and The Deerslayer. His frontier sagas helped define early American identity and set a foundation for historical and adventure fiction. Marjorie Holmes (1910-2002) was an American author, journalist, and educator best known for her inspirational novels and devotional works. Before achieving fame as a bestselling Christian writer, she taught high school English and adapted literary classics for classroom use, such as her mid-century abridgments for Globe Book Company and J. J. Little & Ives. Holmes later gained national prominence with her faith-based novels beginning with Two from Galilee (1972), which reimagined the story of Mary and Joseph and sold millions of copies. Over her career she wrote more than 30 books blending moral reflection with accessible storytelling, becoming one of America's most widely read inspirational authors of the 1970s and '80s.…
