Description
The Adventures of Robert Drury: During Fifteen Years Captivity on the Island of Madagascar is a memoir written by Robert Drury and published in 1807. The book tells the story of Drury's capture by pirates in 1701, at the age of 13, and his subsequent enslavement on the island of Madagascar for 15 years. Drury's memoir is a detailed account of his experiences during his captivity, including his interactions with the native Malagasy people, his struggles to survive in a harsh and unfamiliar environment, and his eventual escape and return to England. The book offers a unique perspective on life in Madagascar during the early 18th century, as well as insights into the psychology of a young boy forced to adapt to a foreign culture and way of life. Overall, The Adventures of Robert Drury is a fascinating and gripping tale of survival, resilience, and human endurance, and remains a classic work of travel literature to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
