This book contains Daniel Defoe's seminal 1722 novel, "e;The Fortunes and Misfortunes of the Famous Moll Flanders"e;. It purports to be a factual account of Moll Flanders's life from birth until death, and recounts the experiences of a woman who, in her life of but thirty years, was "e;twelve year a whore, five times a wife (whereof once to her own Brother), twelve year a thief, eight year a transported felon in Virginia, at last grew Rich, liv'd Honest, and died a Penitent."e; This volume would constitute a worthy addition to any bookshelf, and it is highly recommended for fans and collectors of Defoe's work. Daniel Defoe (1660 - 1731) was an English writer, journalist, trader, and spy. Other notable works by this author include "e;Robinson Crusoe"e; (1719), and "e;Roxana: The Fortunate Mistress"e; (1724). Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.
