Moll Flanders - Softcover
Daniel Defoe (1660?-1731) was a prolific English writer who became one of the first Western writers to write novels and turn them into a sought after literary genre. During his life, Defoe wrote more than 500 books, pamphlets and journals on topics as wide ranging as politics, crime, religion, psychology, supernatural events, and even economics.
Daniel Defoe is best known for Robinson Crusoe, but one of his more famous works is Moll Flanders, which purports to be a true account of the life of Moll Flanders.

Written from her own Memorandums.
