Product Description

In New York's Hudson Valley during the 1750s, woodsman, trapper and US cavalry scout Nat 'Hawkeye' Cutler (John Hart) and his Mohican friend, Chingachgook (Lon Chaney Jr.), are more than simply friends; they are blood brothers, whose bond of loyalty endures amid hard times, adventure and the cycles of hatred and violence that characterise the tough life of the northern frontier settlements. Wherever they can, Hawkeye and Chingachgook bravely endeavour to bring wrongdoers to justice and encourage harmony and understanding. Loosely based on James Fenimore Cooper's classic novel and featuring veteran Western star (and sometime Lone Ranger) John Hart, Hawkeye and the Last of the Mohicans was among the first television Western series to attempt a realistic, less stereotypical portrayal of its Old West setting; Hawkeye and Chingachgook encounter hardened bigots and callous fortune-seekers among the white men, as well as treacherous characters among the Native American tribes. The series, the first ever American-Canadian television project, was filmed in Canada and received its first UK television screening in 1957. This complete-series release brings together every episode.

5.0 out of 5 stars ANOTHER GREAT CLASSIC SERIES 6 Oct 2011
By C. Kingswell TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Amazon Verified Purchase
Based on the novels by James Fennimore Cooper, this series was made in Canada and starred John Hart as Hawkeye and Lon Chaney Jr. as his Indian companion and blood brother Chingachgook. John Hart appeared in many small roles on television and had also starred as the Lone Ranger for a time when Clayton Moore had a dispute with the show's producers. Lon Chaney Jr. was a veteran of many Hollywood movies, most notably 'The Wolf Man' (1941), a role which he played four times in the 1940s.
Hawkeye and Chingachgook are fur traders who make it their business to protect the settlers from the marauding Huron Indians, as well as to keep the peace with other Indian tribes and bring to justice unscrupulous white men.
This was an excellent series ranking alongside so many great shows from that era. It only ran for 39 episodes and the complete series is released here by Network.
Great nostalgia, and look out for Canada-born James Doohan (Scotty in 'Star Trek') in a couple of episodes. You may also recognise John Vernon, who also hailed from Canada, in 5 episodes. Incidentally, the opening sequences are taken from the movie 'The Iroquois Trail' (1950) in which George Montgomery starred as Hawkeye.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hawkeye and the Last of the Mohicans 10 Dec 2011
I am an avid fan of the TV Western and Adventure Series from the 1950's and Hawkeye and the Last of the Mohicans was exceptionally well done. I'm always a bit cautious about the quality of the transfers and have bought several over time that were indeed poorly done or were based on poor source material. I'm very excited to say that this set is an excption. The video transfers and the audio are excellent. It exceeded my expectations and is very well done. I highly recommend this set.
