About This Book

A family of parents and children are shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and must apply practical knowledge to survive and recreate civilized comforts. The account follows their exploration of local plants and animals, inventive use of wreckage to build shelter, tools, and a farm, and the parents' steady instruction in natural history, mechanics, and moral lessons. Episodes alternate hands-on problem solving, domestic routines, and scientific observation, emphasizing resourcefulness, education through example, and the value of cooperative labor in adapting to a remote natural environment.
