Oak Openings by James Fenimore Cooper
"Oak Openings" by James Fenimore Cooper is a novel published in 1848. Set in Michigan's oak savanna during the War of 1812, it follows Benjamin Boden, a professional honey-hunter nicknamed "Ben Buzz." Cooper's last wilderness novel explores the relationship between European settlers and Native Americans during westward expansion. The story weaves themes of property ownership, religion, and industry as the bee-hunter navigates this frontier landscape. This melancholy work serves as a final
chapter to Cooper's exploration of early American wilderness life. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
