*Helpful Introduction and detailed Author Bio
Considered by many to be the first true English novel, Robinson Crusoe is the original castaway story— one man shipwrecked on a desert island with little but his wits and the available resources to sustain him. Written in 1719 by Daniel Defoe and based in part on the true-life accounts of actual marooned sailors of his day, the book was an immediate success and spawned a new form of storytelling.

I am enjoying this tale far more than I expected that I would. The author goes into necessary detail when describing the unloading of the ship onto the deserted island that I found myself completely caught up. An enjoyable read for sure. Highly recommended to anyone of any age.

This book loads only one page at a time and even then very slowly. It's completely impossible to read as a result of this.
