  • Great classic novel

    This is a great classic novel in the early eighteenth century English tradition of adventure stories as symbols for social issues. See "Gulliver's Travels" as another well known example of this type. This edition is very well printed and is easy to read. Highly recommended for readers on any level of understanding starting at about the Fifth grade level and up.
