This is a fun action adventure set in the 18th century that mixed a Jim Bowie type of character with "Last of the Mohicans" as the British Forces in Albany have to treat with their French counterparts in Montreal via the treacherous Iroqouis trail. Thing is, the British are getting bit of a raw deal - and they suspect that there is a spy in their midst. When the young "Sgt. Cutler" (Don Garner) is killed in suspicious circumstances and is subsequently suspected of being that infiltrator, his brother "Nat/Hawkeye" (George Montgomery) sets out to prove his innocence and expose the real culprit. It's a colourful story with plenty of skirmishing, tomahawks and just a hint of romantic swan song from Brenda Marshall as our hero closes in on the traitor, the identity of whom I think we all guess quite quickly... Still, it's a decent effort from all, and I quite enjoyed it.

Questions arise when Senator Stoddard attends the funeral of a local man named Tom Doniphon in a small Western town. Flashing back, we learn Doniphon saved Stoddard, then a lawyer, when he was roughed up by a crew of outlaws terrorizing the town, led by Liberty Valance. As the territory's safety hung in the balance, Doniphon and Stoddard, two of the only people standing up to him, proved to be very important, but different, foes to Valance.

The story is set in the British province of New York during the French and Indian War, and concerns—in part—a Huron massacre (with passive French acquiescence) of between 500 to 1,500 Anglo-American troops, who had honorably surrendered at Fort William Henry, plus some women and servants; the kidnapping of two sisters, daughters of the British commander; and their rescue by the last Mohicans.
