Crusoniana, Or Truth Versus Fiction: Elucidated In A History Of The Islands Of Juan Fernandez (1843) is a book written by Thomas Sutcliffe. The book is a historical account of the islands of Juan Fernandez, which are located off the coast of Chile. The author provides a detailed description of the islands, including their geography, flora, and fauna. He also explores the history of the islands, from their discovery by the Spanish in the 16th century to their use as a base by pirates and privateers in the 17th and 18th centuries. The book also examines the famous story of Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish sailor who was marooned on the islands for four years and provided inspiration for the character of Robinson Crusoe. Sutcliffe separates fact from fiction in the story of Selkirk and provides a more accurate account of his time on the islands. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and geography of the Juan Fernandez islands, as well as the story of Robinson Crusoe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
