The novel follows the restless Crusoe, who disregards his father's advice and goes to sea in search of travel and opportunity. After surviving storms, captivity and other misfortunes, he is shipwrecked on a remote island, where he must depend upon his intelligence, determination and practical skill to remain alive.\n \u003c\/font\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n \u003cfont face=\"Arial\" size=\"4\"\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003c\/font\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n \u003cfont face=\"Arial\" size=\"4\"\u003e\n  Crusoe salvages provisions and tools from the wreck, builds a fortified home, cultivates crops, domesticates animals and gradually creates an ordered existence from the wilderness. His long solitude encourages deep reflection upon providence, faith and his earlier choices, while the discovery of a footprint reveals that he may not be alone. His eventual meeting with Friday introduces the novel's best-known relationship and begins the sequence of events leading towards Crusoe's rescue after 28 years of isolation.\n \u003c\/font\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n \u003cfont face=\"Arial\" size=\"4\"\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003c\/font\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n \u003cfont face=\"Arial\" size=\"4\"\u003e\n  Published in London by J.M.
