The Voyages, Dangerous Adventures, and Imminent Escapes of Captain Richard Falconer

by William Rufus Chetwood

Written in the style of Defoe, this action packed story of shipwrecks, sea battles and Indians is told with a strong commitment to puritan ethics. This is an exact facsimile of the original 1720 printing. It is very well done, unlike the modern print on demand photocopies.
