For more than 270 years, readers of all ages everywhere have been fascinated by the story of a young fool who ran away from wealth, security, and family for a rough life at sea -- and came to his senses too late, alone on a tropical island. Alone, except for cannibals, and God. Robinson Crusoe's adventure takes place on an island near the Orinoco River of Venezuela. Adjusting to the primitive conditions, he learns to make tools, shelters, bread, clothes, baskets, and canoes. More importantly, he becomes a Christian. Modern editions often leave out Crusoe's long struggle with God and his slow transformation as he studies and applies God's Word. As part of P&R's Classics for Young Readers Series, Kathryn Lindskoog has edited Robinson Crusoe for today's reader, faithfully preserving every detail of the original story. Full-page illustrations are featured to add to your reading pleasure.

Autorenporträt
Daniel Defoe (1660-1731) served as a soldier, sold ship insurance, succeeded in the hosiery business, failed in the brick business, and worked as a political secret agent. But his main career was journalism. To support his wife and six children, he wrote over 560 books, pamphlets, and papers. On a couple of occasions, his peppery prose landed him in prison for embarrassing people in power. He was almost sixty years old when he turned to fiction. A Scottish sailor's real-life adventures inspired him to write Robinson Crusoe (1719), which was an instant bestseller.
