It was 1719 and a wonderful new book by Daniel Defoe was published in England.
It was about a shipwrecked sailor who spent years on a deserted island. It was apparently based on the experiences of Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish sailor lost off the coast of South America in the early 1700's.
By the way, I recently saw this 1953 movie about "Robinson Crusoe". It was interesting.
