To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The novel was in its infancy;and as if a "true story" was more worthy of respect than an invention, it received from Defoe an air of verisimilitude and is usually based onsome real events. He is careful to embellish his fictions with littlebits of realism. Thus, Moll Flanders gives an inventory of the goods shetook to America, and in the 'History of the Plague' Defoe adds a note tohis description of a burial-ground:--"N. B. The author of this Journallies buried in that very ground, being at his... own desire, his sisterhaving been buried there a few weeks before. " This enumeration ofparticulars certainly gives an air of reality, but it is a trick easilycaught, and it is only now and then that he hits--as in the aboveinstance--on the characteristic circumstance which gives life andreality to the narrative. Except in 'Robinson Crusoe, ' much of hisdetail is irrelevant and tiresome. But all the events on the lonelyisland are admirably harmonized and have a cumulative effect. Thesecond part, --after the rescue, --written to take advantage of thepopularity of the first, is vastly inferior.
