TRANSCRIPT

Daniel Defoe, The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe (1719)

Andy Weir, The Martian (2011)

“Having mastered this difficulty, and employed a world of time about it, I bestirred myself to see, if possible, how to supply two wants.  I had no vessels to hold anything that was liquid, except two runlets, which were almost full of rum, and some glass bottles”
