18TH CENTURY LIVING HISTORY IN AUSTRALIA.

Saturday 29 May 2010

Daniel Defoe and Jonathon Swift.

For I had about me my flint, steel, match, and burning glass.



Gulliver’s travels, 1726.


Swift, Jonathan, 1667-1745 





Provided with candles and a tinderbox, which I had made of the lock of one of the muskets, with some wildfire in the pan.


Robinson Crusoe. 1719.   


Daniel Defoe.



One of my favourites, a classic adventure story. Robinson Crusoe.
