Omschrijving

The Story of Alexander Selkirk, written by Samuel Griswold Goodrich and first published in 1841, is a biographical account of the Scottish sailor who became the inspiration for Daniel Defoe's famous novel, Robinson Crusoe. The book recounts Selkirk's life, from his early days as a sailor to his fateful decision to stay on an uninhabited island in the South Pacific, where he lived alone for four years. Goodrich draws on Selkirk's own writings, as well as other historical sources, to paint a vivid picture of Selkirk's experiences on the island, including his struggles to survive and his eventual rescue by a passing ship. The book also explores the impact that Selkirk's story had on popular culture, and how it inspired other writers and adventurers to seek out their own adventures in far-flung corners of the world. Overall, The Story of Alexander Selkirk is a fascinating and engaging read for anyone interested in the history of exploration, adventure, and survival.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
