"The Redskins; or, Indian and Injin, Volume 1" by James Fenimore Cooper is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The story appears to explore themes of land ownership, social class struggles, and the dynamics between landlords and tenants. Central characters include Hugh Roger Littlepage and his uncle, who navigate the challenges and upheavals in New York society amidst tensions regarding property rights. At the start of the novel, we meet the narrator, Hugh Roger Littlepage, and his uncle Ro as they return to Paris after a prolonged absence, eager to reconnect with their homeland following political turmoil. The opening reveals the depth of their family legacy and property challenges, particularly related to the Rensselaer estate and its "anti-rent" movement, a conflict between landlords and tenants over enduring leases and rent obligations. As they digest the news from home, it becomes clear that the social fabric of their community is unraveling, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of the implications of changing societal norms and property laws that they will confront upon their return.
