How I did it: Well I just read it, what's there to say, huh?
I'd much more trouble reading "The Picture of Dorian Gray" then "Robinson Crusoe".
It is a mighty interesting story and it's really weird how much in sync you feel with the character while reading.
The only thing that miffed me was the end...
Now honestly he just goes back to England and returns YEARS afterwards to his island, when he's an old man only to discover that the people he left there made it a colony.
I mean, after putting SO much work into the building of his "fortress" and everything else that kept him alive how could he leave it all like that? Especially that certain cave?! Maybe it really being diamonds or streaks of gold that he'd seen.

Ahh... the end really really was bad but the book itself was fantastic, so read it. It's fun reading.
