![]() ![]() Here is the Goodreads Blurb about the book There are many editions of this old classic. The author probably takes us a turn too far when he introduces romance into what is almost a Robinson Crusoe moment in the last part of the book, but that is pleasant enough too. The book has considerable relevance still with regard to the issue of whether 'might is right'. If you want some fine literary references and some energetic tossing around of the biggest of big questions, this will also do you. ![]() If you enjoy a salty yarn set on the high seas with plenty of sailor-speak and lots of rigging and navigation issues, then this will do you. London has arranged a salty tale of challenge and misadventure as the backdrop for some weighty moral issues which are given voice in two main characters. Action drama from the beginning of last century doesn't sound particularly relevant or credible, but this was certainly a thought provoking read from a writer of considerable fame. ![]()
