Chiltern Publishing was formed in 2018 with a vision to create the most beautiful classics. Using a perfect mix of tradition and the very latest in printing techniques, 19th Century quality has met 21st Century technology. With wonderfully detailed covers, sparkling gilt edges, creamy pages, and stitched binding they are the most beautiful classics ever published. Robinson Crusoe is Daniel Defoe's classic story of a shipwrecked hero and his lonely adventure. Despite the wishes of his parents, Robinson Crusoe is determined to devote himself to a life at sea. Luck, however, is not with him in his various voyages - his first is shipwrecked and his second taken by pirates, yet nothing dissuades him from his passion. One day, en route to Africa, his ship is wrecked, leaving him marooned on an uninhabited island, with no way to return to civilization.
