"description": "LibriVox recording of Robinson Crusoe, by Daniel Defoe. Read by Mark F. Smith.

Shipwrecked and castaway, Daniel DeFoe\u2019s hard-luck character is still the standard for \u201cgrowing where you\u2019re planted.\u201d Captured by pirates, he makes his break in a small boat and undergoes desperate adventures before winning his way back to civilization. But Crusoe proves willing to chance his luck a second time when, after sweating his way to prosperity as a planter in Brazil, he undertakes a voyage that isn\u2019t needful\u2026 and is marooned on a small island off South America.

Crusoe shows the value of single-minded labor as he pursues ways to feed, shelter, and clothe himself. His ardent wish is to escape his island \u2013 why is it that the only people who come there are cannibals? But he spends more than two decades in isolation before acquiring a sidekick \u2013 the man Friday you\u2019ve probably heard of. And who would guess his way to salvation would depend on leading a last-ditch fight against a shipful of mutineers?
