'The most reliable and comprehensive account of the Great Plague that we possess' Anthony Burgess In 1665 the plague swept through London, claiming over 97,000 lives. Daniel Defoe was just five at the time of the plague, but he later called on his own memories, as well as his writing experience, to create this vivid chronicle of the epidemic and its victims. 'A Journal' (1722) follows Defoe's fictional narrator as he traces the devastating progress of the plague through the streets of London. Here we see a city transformed: some of its streets suspiciously empty, some - with crosses on their doors - overwhelmingly full of the sounds and smells of human suffering. And every living citizen he meets has a horrifying story that demands to be heard.
Jonathan Wild was the Thief-Taker General who helped to recapture a number of criminals only to be tried and executed himself for racketeering. Daniel Defoe was the first to re-tell these "true crime" tales, based on personal interviews in Newgate.
Classic literature at its best! Lively adventures from across the literary spectrum. Tried and true tales of some of fiction's most famous risk takers, the adventures we all grew up admiring. Sure to delight young readers and provide them with many hours of exciting fun. This two-cassette (1hr. 58 min.) audio edition retells how Robinson Carusoe defies his parents to pursue a seafaring life, but his plans are scuppered after he is marooned on a desert island. He adapts quickly to his new surroundings, but his solitude ends once he rescues the man who becomes his helpmate and pupil, and whom he names "Friday".
