- ended how it should have. Total absolution. What a story.
- Things I liked: the warring perspectives of how to survive, the question of what is law and order when nothing is going on, the dangers men will go to, the antics nations will rage for a fraction of the return on investment (ansombs’ bounty was a fraction of what was paid for the voyage.). The kweskar are incredible. The four different return voyages home.

The Scottish man you’re referring to is Alexander Selkirk, who was marooned on an uninhabited island in the South Pacific Ocean, now known as Robinson Crusoe Island, part of the Juan Fernández Islands off the coast of Chile. Selkirk lived alone on the island from 1704 to 1709. His story is believed to have inspired Daniel Defoe’s novel “Robinson Crusoe.” Selkirk was a skilled navigator and sailor, and his survival skills, including hunting, gathering, and shelter building, allowed him to survive until he was eventually rescued by an English ship. His experience highlights the human capacity for adaptation and survival in extreme conditions.
