Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Swiss Family Robinson: Or Adventures of a Father and Mother and Four in a Desert Island The Editor confesses that he expected the favor which has been shown by the Public to the present work, in the sale of six large editions; for the situations it exhibits of the best affections of our nature are such as to "come home to every bosom," to interest and gratify both parents and children of all ages and descriptions. In its pages the useful, the moral, and the entertaining, so naturally mix with or succeed each other, that every generous taste is suited. No story can be better calculated than this of the Swiss Pastor and his Family to awaken and reward curiosity, to excite amiable sympathies, to show the young inquirer after good, that the accidents of life may be repaired by the efforts of his own thought, and the constancy of his own industry; and to rouse the most inert to emulation. - What youthful reader of lively dispositions, who would not try to posses, or dream of the possession of, a saw, a hammer, and some nails, and hurry in fancy to the contrivance of a Family Bridge, a staircase to Falcon´s Nest, or a parlor, a bedroom, and kitchen, in a Rock of salt? What lad who can see with unflushed cheek, Ernest, and Jack, and Francis, all together on the back of their pleasure; or descry "frits driving along our avenue like lightning," on his disciplined onagra, without feelings his personal courage expand as he turns the page?
