Robinson Crusoe (Oxford World's Classics)

by Daniel Defoe

Robinson Crusoe (Oxford World's Classics) Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The solitary survivor on a deserted island, Robinson Crusoe gradually creates a life for himself, building a house and cultivating the land, and making a companion of 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.

Synopsis:

These portable, handy sized classics are a great addition to your collection or they make a great gift item. All are hardcover editions in imitation red leather with golden foil stamping. Includes a red ribbon marker.
