Book excerpt: A CLASSIC TALE OF SHIPWRECK AND SURVIVAL Widely regarded as the first English novel, Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe, is one of the most popular adventure stories and most published books in history. This beautifully designed novel of human endurance set in a faraway land is packed with suspense, enchanting detail and daring heroics. Unfolding over a 30 year period, this classic tale of shipwreck and survival is a timeless celebration of hard work, patience, ingenuity, and undaunting courage and is one of the great works of Western civilization. In his own words, Robinson Crusoe, a castaway who was marooned on a remote tropical island for 28 years tells of the terrible storm that drowned all his shipmates and left him struggling to create a life for himself in the wilderness. Crusoe becomes self-sufficient using material salvaged from shipwrecks as he learns to make pottery, grow crops, build a house and domesticate livestock. He must overcome despair, doubt, and self-pity as he encounters cannibals, earthquakes, and mutineers. His many adventures include his rescue of a native who has escaped from cannibals. Naming him Friday, the day he was found, he becomes Crusoe’s trusted companion and servant. The two share a variety of adventures including a fierce battle with cannibals. They recapture a mutinous ship and return to England. An instant success when first published in 1719, over the years Robinson Crusoe has inspired countless imitations along with numerous sequels and adaptations for stage, film, and television. The plot is believed to be partly based on the real-life experiences of Scottish sailor Alexander Selkirk.

Book excerpt: Robinson Crusoe is a novel by Daniel Defoe, first published on 25 April 1719. The first edition credited the work's protagonist Robinson Crusoe as its author, leading many readers to believe he was a real person and the book a travelogue of true incidents. Epistolary, confessional, and didactic in form, the book is presented as an autobiography of the title character (whose birth name is Robinson Kreutznaer)--a castaway who spends 28 years on a remote tropical desert island near Trinidad, encountering cannibals, captives, and mutineers, before ultimately being rescued. The story has been thought to be based on the life of Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish castaway who lived for four years on a Pacific island called "Más a Tierra", now part of Chile, which was renamed Robinson Crusoe Island in 1966

Book excerpt: Over the summer of 1821, a cash-strapped John James Audubon worked as a tutor at Oakley Plantation in Louisiana’s rural West Feliciana Parish. This move initiated a profound change in direction for the struggling artist. Oakley’s woods teemed with life, galvanizing Audubon to undertake one of the most extraordinary endeavors in the annals of art: a comprehensive pictorial record of America’s birds. That summer, Audubon began what would eventually become his four-volume opus, Birds of America. In A Summer of Birds, Danny Heitman recounts the season that shaped Audubon’s destiny, sorting facts from romance to give an intimate view of the world’s most famous bird artist. A new preface marks the two-hundredth anniversary of that eventful interlude, reflecting on Audubon’s enduring legacy among artists, aesthetes, and nature lovers in Louisiana and around the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An instant success in its own time, Daniel Defoe's The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe has for three centuries drawn readers to its archetypal hero, the man surviving alone on an island. This Companion begins by studying the eighteenth-century literary, historical and cultural contexts of Defoe's novel, exploring the reasons for its immense popularity in Britain and in its colonies in America and in the wider European world. Chapters from leading scholars discuss the social, economic and political dimensions of Crusoe's island story before examining the 'after life' of Robinson Crusoe, from the book's multitudinous translations to its cultural migrations and transformations into other media such as film and television. By considering Defoe's seminal work from a variety of critical perspectives, this book provides a full understanding of the perennial fascination with, and the enduring legacy of, both the book and its iconic hero.
