All the remedy that offered to my thoughts at that time was to get up into a thick bushy tree like a fir, but thorny, which grew near me, and where I resolved to sit all night, and consider the next day what death I should die, for as yet I saw no prospect of life. I walked about a furlong from the shore, to see if I could find any fresh water to drink, which I did, to my great joy; and having drank, and put a little tobacco into my mouth to prevent hunger, I went to the tree, and getting up into it, endeavoured to place myself so that if I should sleep I might not fall. And having cut me a short stick, like a truncheon, for my defence, I took up my lodging; and having been excessively fatigued, I fell fast asleep, and slept as comfortably as, I believe, few could have done in my condition, and found myself more refreshed with it than, I think, I ever was on such an occasion...take joy in the small things after your shipwrecks!","brand":"Country House Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39268750458967,"sku":"6513576","price":29.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2458\/8207\/products\/robinson-crusoe-old-book-vintage-_2.jpg?v=1642162505"},{"product_id":"mark-twains-the-innocents-abroad-2","title":"Mark Twain's The Innocents Abroad 1949 - Collins","description":"\u003cbr\u003eTitle: The Innocents Abroad\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Mark Twain\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Collins\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: Undated but inscription states 1949\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003eCondition: This book is in a good condition for its age other than some minor signs of wear.
