I was listening to a podcast and the guest had mentioned this book as one of his “3 every man should read”. So I borrowed it from the Libby app. I gotta say, I enjoyed this book. I’ve always enjoyed adventure novels since I was a child and this really sparked nostalgia for me.
Granted, some of the book felt like it sludged on, but that makes sense. Crusoe spent nearly three decades there so of course we’re going to read about mundane tasks. I can’t imagine the amount of satisfaction whenever he was able to preform something we take for granted, such as baking bread or planting a field. I also appreciated the religious commentary provided in the book.
