Daniel Defoe traveled much and wrote many books. One day he met a sailor who told him this story.
“Some years ago a man whose name was Alexander Selkirk worked on a ship as a sailor. The captain of the ship did not like him. One day, when they were near a small island in the middle of the sea, the captain was so angry with Alexander that he decided to leave him on that island. There were no people on that island and Alexander lived there for more than four years. One day he saw a ship near the island. The sailors needed drinking water and the ship sailed up to the island. They took Alexander on their ship to England.”
Many London newspapers wrote about Alexander Selkirk, but time passed and people forgot his story.
When Defoe was sixty years old, he decided to write a novel about the life of a man on the island where there were no people. When the novel was published it made Defoe famous. The story of Robinson Crusoe is known all over the world.
