The Life & Strange Surprizing Adventures Of Robinson Crusoe of York, Mariner
By Daniel Defoe
Illustrated by Richard Floethe
Published at The Peter Pauper Press: New York c1950

"The Life and Strange Surprizing Adventures of Robinson Crusoe of York, Mariner by Daniel Defoe, first published in 1719, is often considered the first English novel and remains a cornerstone of adventure literature. It tells the story of Robinson Crusoe, a seafaring Englishman who, after a series of misfortunes, is shipwrecked on a remote island. Stranded alone, he must use his resourcefulness and resilience to survive, crafting shelter, cultivating food, taming animals, and gradually creating a solitary but sustainable life. His detailed account of daily struggles and ingenuity captures the spirit of self-reliance and human adaptability.

The narrative evolves beyond survival when Crusoe encounters other people, including the man he names Friday, whom he rescues and befriends. Their relationship introduces themes of cultural difference, colonialism, and faith. Throughout the story, Crusoe reflects on providence, morality, and divine grace, making the novel not just an adventure tale but also a spiritual journey. Defoe's work blends realism with moral reflection, offering readers both a gripping survival story and a meditation on civilization, religion, and the human condition."
