Inhaltsangabe

This volume presents seven short stories of pirates and robbers, all published originally during the busy years in which Defoe's work as a novelist was done. They were, no doubt, thrown off in haste by a busy writer, and they do not rank with his masterpieces; yet they exhibit the same powers, and they deserve to be known. Contents: Introduction The King of Pirates: Captain Avery The Cartoucheans in France The History of the Remarkable Life of John Sheppard A Narrative of All the Robberies, Escapes, &c., of John Sheppard The Life and Actions of Jonathan Wild The Adventures of Captain John Gow Lives of Six Notorious Street-Robbers
