"Jethou; or, Crusoe Life in the Channel Isles" by Ernest R. Suffling is a fictional narrative written in the late 19th century. This story revolves around Harry Nilford, a young man who undertakes a self-imposed solitary adventure on the small island of Jethou in the Channel Islands, seeking to live the life of a modern-day Crusoe. As he navigates the trials and joys of isolation, the book explores themes of adventure, survival, and the relationship between man and nature." "At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Harry and his youthful aspirations for adventure, drawing parallels with the classic tale of Robinson Crusoe. His journey begins with an accident involving his father’s fishing vessel, which leads to a trip to Guernsey. Captivated by the beauty of Jethou, Harry persuades an island owner to allow him to live there alone for a year. This opening section effectively sets the stage for his adventures and personal challenges, laying out a detailed and engaging backdrop for his upcoming experiences on the island."
