Review this book!
The experiences of Robert Selkirk, who was a castaway on an island off the coast of South America at the beginning of the 18th century, are said to have been the model on which Daniel Defoe built his own, very different, tale of a castaway--ROBINSON CRUSOE.

First Line
Defined by the vast South Sea, The Island from a wooden craft, far out, was a destination, a place of refuge.
