Robinson Crusoe and its sequel, Defoe's seminal adventure of the desert island castaway. Much reprinted, much imitated, "Crusoe" is well-established as one of the great works of English literature. The first volume is the Third Edition; the second is the first edition, first issue, first variant (Hutchins B1) with verso of A4 blank and ''breaking'', ''Diff-/erence'', ''Punish-/ment and: He'' and ''wanting'' on recto and ''Farthfr'' on recto of B1. The folding double-hemisphere map of the world in Vol. II, featuring California as an island, is backed with linen.
