Let's
take a new look at...
THE
ROBINSON CRUSOE STORY
Including
the virtually unknown Volume Three.
|
 |
A great
book just became even more intriguing! We went digging into the mystery-shrouded
background of "The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson
Crusoe," and discovered some amazing things!
First
of all, there are three volumes, not just one! And they are all
part of the original story. Now you can thrill to the story once
again, and see how the marooned Robinson Crusoe rose above his intense
loneliness and impossible circumstances.
|
In "The
Real Robinson Crusoe--All Three Original Volumes," we share with
you also the strange and surprising "behind-the-scenes"
story of Daniel Defoe's widely loved tale (Click on "Fresh Discoveries"),
and how the story really grew out of the amazing real-life experiences
of the author.
In
this book, the "brightest jewels" of the Robinson Crusoe
story have here been restored-for the first time in almost 300 years!
Since Daniel Defoe's captivating tale has been pirated and mutilated
over the years, probably more than any other book, we have gone
back to the original manuscripts to get at the real story.

Incorporating
Vol. II and Vol. III, this new book in readable condensed form tells
the whole story as originally intended: Robinson Crusoe's captivating
adventures on an uninhabited island, his later world-wide escapades
(Vol. II) and his reflections after 28 years on a lonely island (Vol.
III) (Click on "My Thoughts.")
We
have added two features, "The Life that Gave Us Robinson Crusoe,"
and the story-behind-the-story of the real island that forms the
backdrop for this amazing tale. Based on many years of careful research,
this has all been expressed in modern English by long-time Robinson
Crusoe enthusiast, Kenneth McVety.

The
original of this book was penned by Daniel Defoe in 1719-20. To add
life and color to the pages, we bring you throughout this web site
the outstanding artwork of Milo Winter (c. 1914).
