## Description

A restless young man from York ignores his father, goes to sea, and after years of misfortune is shipwrecked alone on an island off the mouth of the Orinoco. He salvages tools from the wreck, builds a fortified home, keeps a calendar on a post, and one day finds a single human footprint in the sand.
