Robert
Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, and Daniel
Defoe's Robinson Crusoe- Although they make
allusions to being publishers, the online site for Fern
Canyon Press seems to be aimed at retailing books over the Net. They
generally specialize in 3 areas: pirate history, history of the wild west,
and what can only be described as miscellaneous. They are nice enough
to put a fairly substantial amount of stuff online to browse through, including
some articles and the full text of at least 4 books - including Robert
Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, and Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe.
Both of these include what appears to be a complete set of color illustrations
by the great N.C. Wyeth.
