The History of the Life and Adventures of Duncan Campbell is a novel written by Daniel Defoe in 1895. The book tells the story of the life of a man named Duncan Campbell, who was born with a physical disability that left him unable to walk. Despite this, Campbell became a successful businessman and a well-known figure in London society.The novel is written in the first person, with Campbell himself narrating his life story. He describes his childhood in Scotland, his struggles with his disability, and his eventual move to London to seek his fortune. Once in London, Campbell becomes a successful fortune-teller and healer, using his disability as a means of gaining sympathy and trust from his clients.Throughout the book, Campbell encounters a variety of interesting characters, including thieves, con artists, and members of the aristocracy. He also has several romantic relationships, including a marriage to a woman named Mary.The History of the Life and Adventures of Duncan Campbell is an entertaining and engaging novel that offers a unique perspective on life in 18th-century London.
