It was perhaps, ineveitable that Defoe, an outspoken man, would become a political journalist. As a Puritan he believed God had given him a mission to print the truth, that is, to proselytize on religion and politics, and in fact, he became a prolific pamphleteer satirizing the hypocrisies of both Church and State. Defoe admired William III, and his poem \u003ci\u003eThe True-Born Englishman \u003c\/i\u003e(1701) won him the King's friendship. But an ill-timed satire on High Church extremists, The Shortest Way with the Dissenters, published during Queen Anne's reign, resulted in his being pilloried and imprisoned for seditious libel in 1703. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt fifty-nine Defoe turned to fiction, completing \u003ci\u003eThe Life and Strange Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e(1719), partly based on the saga of Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish sailor; \u003cb\u003eMoll Flanders\u003c\/b\u003e (1722); \u003ci\u003eColonel Jack\u003c\/i\u003e (1722); \u003ci\u003eA Journal of the Plague Years\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e(1722); and \u003ci\u003eRoxana or the Fortunate Mistress\u003c\/i\u003e (1724).","brand":"Modern Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42696619131117,"sku":"9780375757327","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_44b84e4a-0d23-44de-b3e1-a11816fb626c.jpg?v=1649881591","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/robinson-crusoe-9780375757327","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
