Deerslayer is a character in which work?

Deerslayer is the nickname of Natty Bumppo, a frontier hunter created by James Fenimore Cooper. He appears in Cooper’s stories about the Leatherstocking hero, including short works where Natty is known as Deerslayer. Among the options, the only work that features Deerslayer as a character is A Rescue, a James Fenimore Cooper story. The other titles come from Hawthorne, Riley, and Melville and don’t include this character, so they’re not correct. Recognizing the author-hero connection helps you see why A Rescue is the right match.
