My favorite Cora moment is when she left Duncan's side at night in the forest and questions Hawkeye. When she says "On the contrary, it is more deeply stirring to my blood than any imagining could be", my heart pounded! I like to believe I would have responded the same way!
Used to the refined men an manners of Boston and London her reaction to the wilderness and to Hawkeye was one of wonder and excitement. As we know she was more than capable of handling whatever came her way. No wonder she won Hawkeye's heart!
