A Historical Narrative Of The Shipwreck And Captivity Of Mr. De Brisson is a memoir written by Pierre Raymond De Brisson, detailing his experiences of being shipwrecked and held captive for several months. The book, published in 1789, provides a vivid account of the events that led to the shipwreck and the subsequent hardships that De Brisson and his fellow survivors faced while being held captive by a group of indigenous people. The book also highlights the cultural differences between the captors and the captives, and how they managed to overcome these differences to form a bond. Overall, the book is an insightful and engaging read that offers a unique perspective on the experiences of a shipwreck survivor during the late 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
