John,
As usual, the best place to start is here on this site. Gayle has written an extraordinary piece on Natty Bumppo, having read those books more than anyone can imagine anyone would want to read them ( :>)) ), and your answers and more may be there. Follow the link below.

Cheers,

: In Deerslayer, which was written after LOTM, but took place sometime before, Hawkeye is around 20 years of age. JFC never mentions Chingachgook's age, but it is implied that they are as brothers and that it is both's first warpath. In the movie, Hawkeye refers to Chingachgook in more of a fatherly way. The confusing part is that JFC implies that Uncas is a name that will be pass to Chingchgook upon maturation.

: I have not read the book LOTM yet, but I have questions now.
: 1) How old is Hawkeye in LOTM
: 2) Does Chingachgook pass from a brother figure for Hawkeye to a father figure in the book or any other?
