{"product_id":"robinson-crusoe-daniel-defoe-9780486404271","title":"Robinson Crusoe","description":"\u003cp\u003eThought to have been inspired by the true-life experiences of a marooned sailor, \u003ci\u003eRobinson Crusoe\u003c\/i\u003e tells the story of the sole survivor of a shipwreck, stranded on a Caribbean island, who prevails against all odds, enduring three decades of solitude while mastering both himself and his strange new world. First published in 1719, the novel has long been one of the English language's great adventure stories.\u003cbr\u003eIn the journal he shares with us, the endearing, goatskin-clad castaway recounts the details of his lonely existence and his many adventures, including a fierce battle with cannibals and a daring rescue of Friday, the man who becomes his trusted servant and companion. Defoe's brilliant and imaginative use of detail renders Crusoe's island world utterly convincing. In reclaiming his humanity from the savagery of his circumstances, the hero humbly acquires the qualities of courage, patience, ingenuity, and industry.\u003cbr\u003eHailed as the first great English novel, Robinson Crusoe spawned legions of imitations, none of which surpass the original. All readers with a taste for adventure will relish this inexpensive edition of one of the most popular and influential books ever written.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel Defoe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0486404277\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780486404271\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dover Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/10\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.28h x 5.18w x 0.62d","brand":"Daniel Defoe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44048627106047,"sku":"9780486404271","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_af4c450c-0051-4248-99af-7cc895631220.jpg?v=1684996873","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/robinson-crusoe-daniel-defoe-9780486404271","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
