Adventures Of Robinson Crusoe

Robinson Crusoe has all the ingredients of a first class adventure story—shipwreck, a young man alone on an uninhabited island, storms, dangers, cannibals and mutineers! Daniel Defoe’s spellbinding account is based on the real-life adventures of Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish sailor, who was stranded on an uninhabited island, off the coast of Chile in 1704. He was finally rescued by an English ship after four and a half years. Little wonder that nearly three hundred years later, this exciting story still continues to fascinate readers.
