A nice Crusoe teaching resource

A good teaching resource for presenting the book to undergraduates is the multimedia website “Chasing Crusoe”–a collaboration between students at Chapel Hill and some visiting students from Chile. The website describes the island where Selkirk was marooned and compares it to the setting of Defoe’s novel. There’s a section which deals with “fact vs. fiction” and a great deal of good visual material to bring new readers into the novel.
