Résumé

While searching for fresh food on a seemingly uninhabited island Edward Dorrington and his crew stumble upon a meticulously crafted village. They soon discover that the buildings and everything in them belong to a single man who has been living on the island alone for more than fifty years. Dorrington offers to rescue the man from the island, but the hermit declines, and offers the group a fine dinner while he recounts the tale of his odd and adventure-filled life.

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de Peter Longueville

Little is known about author Peter Longueville. His only literary contribution, The English Hermit: or the unparalleled sufferings, and surprising adventures of Phillip Quarll, was originally published in 1727. Some early editions announced the fictitious narrator of the novel, Edward Dorrington, as the author, presumably to increase popularity and lend realism to Longeuville's story while other sources alternately credit Alexander Bicknell, who may have been a translator or editor of the work, as a co-author.
