The Wing-and-Wing

The Wing-and-Wing; Or, Le Feu-Follet is an 1842 sea novel by James Fenimore Cooper. The novel includes a thematic interest in religiosity and faith.[1] The novel also introduces metacriticism into Cooper's sea fiction, as does The Sea Lions, unlike earlier novels which typically also focused on nautical and nationalist themes.[2]
