James Fenimore Cooper was a popular American writer in 19th century. He was best known for his historical romances. Before his writer career, he served in the U.S. Navy as a Midshipman, which greatly influenced many of his novels and other writings. "The Two Admirals" by James Fenimore Cooper is a great example of male bounding novels. The novel itself describes people and places in excruciating details with plenty of actions and quality drama. Everyone who is interested in sailing in all its purity, the detail in describing ships and sailing, hearing the wind in the rigging will be fond of this novel. As in all of Cooper's writing, you'll also gain a new and true perspective on the history of the time.
