Robinson Crusoe

Robinson Crusoe

"I made him know his Name should be Friday, which was the Day I sav"d his Life...I likewise taught him to say Master"

Robinson Crusoe"s seafaring adventures are abruptly ended when he is shipwrecked, the solitary survivor on a deserted island. He gradually creates a life for himself, building a house, cultivating the land, and making a companion from the native whose life he saves.

Daniel Defoe"s enthralling story-telling and imaginatively detailed descriptions have ensured that his fiction masquerading as fact remains one of the most famous stories in English literature. On one level a simple adventure story, the novel also raises profound questions about moral and spiritual values, society, and man"s abiding acquisitiveness. This new edition includes a scintillating Introduction and notes that illuminate the historical context.
