Robinson Crusoe,the narrator of the story,tells us that he was born in 1632 in the city of York,England.
His father,a German immigrant,married a woman whose name was Robinson,and his real name was Robinson Kreutznaer,but due to the natural corruption of languages,the family now writes their name "Crusoe."
He was the third son; his oldest brother was killed in a war,and the next son simply disappeared.When Robinson Crusoe first had an urge to go to sea,his father lectured him upon the importance of staying home and being content with his "middle station" in life.
His father maintained that the "middle station had the fewest disasters and was not exposed to so many vicissitudes as the higher or lower part of mankind."
After his father expressly forbade him to go to sea,and,furthermore,promised to do good things for him if he stayed home,for another whole year,Robinson Crusoe stayed at home,but he constantly thought of adventures upon the high sea.

Robinson Crusoe is a novel written by Daniel Defoe. The book was first published on April 25, 1719.
Robinson Crusoe, the protagonist, was born in a middle-class family and spent his life traveling around the world.
On a voyage to Africa, I was caught in a storm and drifted to a deserted island, where I began to live in isolation.
With tenacious will and unremitting efforts, he survived tenaciously on the desert island and returned to his hometown after 28 years, 2 months and 19 days.
This novel was written by Defoe inspired by a real story at that time. In September 1704, a Scottish sailor named Alexander Selkirk quarreled with the captain.
