Castaway in Paradise |
Castaway
in ParadiseCastaway in Paradise explores the reality in the myth through the exciting stories of castaways who, because of shipwrecks, perfidious sea captains, or their own choice, found themselves true-life Robinson Crusoes. From Alexander Selkirk, the original Robinson Crusoe, to William Mariner, the boy chief of Tonga, Herman Melville, who found his dream valley in the Marquesas, coming to the present time with Tom Neale, a New Zealand drifter who became famous as the Hermit of Suwarrow, there is a fascinating array of castaways and their adventures.
These are gripping stories of adventure and survival, mostly set in the South Pacific on dream islands with palm-fringed beaches.
