In 1719, nearly 60, plagued by gout and mired in debt, Daniel Defoe sat down to write the classic by which his name would endure. A few miles away, an elderly sea captain, Robert Knox, struggled to revise his 40-year-old bestseller recounting his captivity in Ceylon. Where did Crusoe come from, and what is the secret of his endurance? This revealing, ground-breaking book explores the intertwined lives of the man who wrote Robinson Crusoe and the man who was Crusoe.
