Overview
This classic story of a shipwrecked mariner on a deserted island, hailed as one of the greatest adventures in all of English literatureFleeing from pirates, Robinson Crusoe is swept ashore in a storm possessing only a knife, a box of tobacco, a pipe—and the will to survive. His is the saga of a man alone: a man who overcomes self-pity and despair to reconstruct his life; who painstakingly teaches himself how to fashion a pot, bake bread, build a canoe; and who, after twenty-four agonizing years of solitude, discovers a human footprint in the sand. . . .
A perennial favorite since its first publication in 1719, Daniel Defoe’s story of human endurance in an exotic, faraway land exerts a timeless appeal. The first important English novel, the saga of Robinson Crusoe has taken its rightful place among the great myths of Western civilization.
