He was living alone on thatisland all those years and managed not only to stay alive, but also to makehimself fairly comfortable. At last he was rescued by the sailors of aship that had arrived at that island for water. When Alexander Selkirk returned to London he was speaking much about what had happened to him. Some ofhis stories were published,(were) read and (were) soon forgotten. A few years laterpractically nobody remembered what Alexander Selkirk had been spoken about orwho he had been.
But Defoe didn`t forget. He turned to writing a story ofa shipwrecked man. He chose an island in a different part of theworld for his story and created an imaginary character- RobinsonCruise. With his skill of a journalist he made his story seemedabsolutely true. The book was a great success.
Nowadays there ishardly a person who hasn`t heard of Robinson Cruise, while the true storyof Selkirk isn`t known to many people.
