Features: This is a truly magical book that tells the incredible experiences of a man. Robinson had a good life and estate, but he was not content with his current situation and wanted to explore new frontiers. His ship encountered a storm, and everyone on board drowned, except him, who survived and arrived on a deserted island that had never been visited by humans. He salvaged everything from the wrecked ship and built his own new home. On the island, he hunted pigs, fed goats, and grew rice and wheat, becoming the true master of the island. In just a few decades, he had built a thriving community. People came to the island, including those who were cannibals. He rescued those who were about to be eaten, and thus, the island had his servant—Friday, the man he saved. Cannibals continued to arrive, and he rescued another white man. His island grew increasingly prosperous. When he rescued the captain, he took the ship and left the island, returning to his homeland of England after 32 years. The story is bizarre, vivid, thrilling, and filled with endless wonders.
