Summary: "The American Family Robinson; or, The Adventures of a Family Lost in the Great Desert of the West" by D. W. Belisle is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. The narrative centers around the Duncan family, led by the father, Mr. Duncan, who embarks on a journey westward in search of new opportunities. Through their adventures in the wilderness, the family confronts dangers, encounters Native American tribes, and uncovers relics of ancient civilizations, presenting a vivid picture of the challenges and discoveries of frontier life. At the start of the story, Mr. Duncan expresses discontent with the encroachment of civilization on his life as a woodsman and decides to move his family westward in pursuit of a better life. The family, consisting of Mr. and Mrs. Duncan and their six children, prepares for the journey, selling their farm to venture into the uncharted territories. As they embark on their expedition, they face numerous trials, including the loss of two of their children, Edward and Anne, who become separated during a hunting trip. Their search leads to encounters with danger, such as a wolf attack, as well as awe-inspiring relics of a past civilization, setting the stage for the family's thrilling and tumultuous adventure in the American West.
