Robinson Crusoe - Special Redux Edition

Description
The classic tale of survival and ultimate redemption by Daniel Defoe has been completely re-edited by Adventure Books of Seattle. 'God still has a part in the book,' says editor Robert M Blevins, 'but a smaller one and more fitting to the actual adventure...' Included are 27 of the best images drawn from classic versions of the book published over the last 300 years. The Special Redux Edition corrects many of the flaws in Defoe's original including a slight restructuring of events, since Defoe often related things out of order in the original. Possibly the best version ever offered of this classic, and certainly the easiest to read. The Special Redux has been praised by both teachers and students alike for helping to re-introduce this great tale in a way that makes it more fun to read and easier to understand.Read more
