Robinson Crusoe

by Daniel Defoe

Young Robinson ignores some excellent advice, goes to sea, gets shipwrecked, and finds himself alone on an island with nothing but his wits and an alarming amount of free time. Robinson Crusoe is a story of self-reliance, survival, adventure, ingenuity, cannibals, colonialism—and one man’s heroic determination to make himself comfortable absolutely anywhere.
