About this ebook
Published in 1838, Homeward Bound tells the story of the Effingham family's voyage back to the United States after several years in Europe. The events, including sea chases, storms, shipwrecks, attacks by Arabs, and a romance between young Eve Effingham and the handsome but mysterious Paul Powies, provide Cooper with an outlet for social commentary.
James Fenimore Cooper
James Fenimore Cooper was a nineteenth-century American author and political critic. Esteemed by many for his Romantic style, Cooper became popular for his depiction of Native Americans in fiction. Before Cooper considered himself a writer, he was expelled from Yale University, served as a midshipman for the United States Navy, and became a gentleman farmer. Cooper wrote many notable works including The Pioneers, The Last of the Mohicans, and The Red Rover, which was adapted and performed on stage in 1828. Cooper passed away in 1851 at the age of 61.
