  • "Recognized as one of the important early innovators in the novel format, British writer Daniel Defoe contributed such beloved works to the Western canon as Robinson Crusoe and Moll Flanders. In The Life, Adventures, and Piracies of the Famous Captain Singleton, Defoe spins an unforgettable yarn that follows a well-born young man as he descends into a life of criminal enterprise on the high seas."@en
  • "This novel follows the exploits of Bob Singleton, abducted as a child and raised by Gypsies. Making his way to the sea at age 12, Singleton sets sail for far-away lands, gaining and losing a fortune before turning to piracy, and ultimately finds redemption through the tutelage of a Quaker."
  • "Bob Singleton goes to sea at the age of twelve, makes a fortune, loses it, and makes another as a pirate before he ultimately reforms."@en
  • "The narrative describes the life of an Englishman, stolen from a well-to-do family as a child and raised by Gypsies who eventually makes his way to sea.One half of the book concerns Singleton's crossing of Africa and the later half concerns his life as a pirate in the Indian Ocean and Arabian Sea. Defoe's description of piracy focuses for the most part on matters of economics and logistics, making it an intriguing if not particularly gripping read. Singleton's pirate behaves more like a merchant adventurer, perhaps Defoe's comment on the mercantilism of his day."@en
