Sinopsis
Does the fact that a weak mortal sought an unprofaned sanctuary - an island removed from the haunts of men - and there dwelt in tranquillity, happiness and security, represent any just occasion for the relation of his experiences - experiences necessarily out of the common? To this proposition it will be for these pages to find answer.
