Shipwrecked at sea, nearly drowned, he washes ashore upon an exotic island called Liliput--where the people are only 6" tall. Next he visits a land of incredible giants called the Brobdingnagians. They are more than 60' tall. He travels to Lapauta, a city that floats in the city, & to Glubbdubdrib, the Island of Sorcerers. his final voyage brings him into contact with the Yahoos--a brutish race of subhumans--& an intelligently virtuous race of horse, the Houyhnhnms.
