Only one copy located in OCLC 1030747796 (Orient Institut in Istanbul). First Edition, thus. It's an abridged translation into Ottoman Turkish but the first illustrated edition in the Ottoman / Turkish literature. According to the preface written by a translator named Mehmed Ali, whose biographical information could not be found in the literature, it is understood that he was a primary school teacher in the Ottoman period. He stated that during his teaching period, he translated some selected books from western literature from their original languages ??and read them to his students. His students said that they liked Robinson Crusoe the most, and Mehmed Ali translated and published the entire book upon his students' request.

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Paperback. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In Ottoman script. 439 p. First Edition, thus. This first Turkish translation of Robinson Crusoe made by Sükrü Kaya is produced while the translator was in exile in Malta. With the help of Michael Seidel's argument, for instance, Kaya's translation might be regarded not only as a translation made in the circumstances of exile but also as a translation of what Seidel calls an "exile narrative". This might be the only reason why Kaya decided to translate this novel. It is highly probable that he was feeling depressed and lonely; therefore, he chose to translate the story of a lonely man like himself. Indeed, Kaya declares in the translator's preface to Robinson Crusoe that the activity of translation to an extent made him forget the pain of captivity [= Tercüme mesguliyeti bana esaretin acilarini kismen unutturuyordu]. The first Turkish translation of this novel was made by Ahmed Lutfî and published by Takvimhâne-i Âmire as early as 1864. It was an abridged translation, and an unabridged translation was not made until 1919 when Sükrü Kaya was in exile in Malta. This unabridged translation made by Kaya was published by Tanin Printing House in Istanbul in 1923, and it belonged to -The Collection of Immortal Works- [Ölmez Eserler Külliyati]. Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe (1719) has been attracting the attention of many critics and scholars both in the West and in Turkey for years. Robinson Crusoe was originally written in English, and published on April 25, 1719, and its title was in fact quite long. Robinson Crusoe is among the novels which are argued to be the first English novel. The book has obtained worldwide fame, and there are hundreds of translations and adaptations. Probably due to the success of the first novel, Defoe wrote the second book which is entitled The Further Adventures of Robinson Crusoe. (Sources: THE SHAPING ROLE OF RETRANSLATIONS IN TURKEY: THE CASE OF ROBINSON CRUSOE, Asli Emekçi.; OSMANLICADA ROBENSON, Ayse Banu Karadag). Sükrü Kaya, (1883-1959), was a Turkish civil servant and politician, who served as a government minister, Minister of Interior and Minister of Foreign affairs in several governments. (Wikipedia).

WAGER; ONE OF THE MOST COMPELLING NAVAL ACCOUNTS OF THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY.<br> This narrative is the exciting mutineers' side of the story of the loss of the Wager to inhospitable climate on one of the world's most remote and dangerous coastlines beyond the Straits of Magellan. When Commodore Anson set out for the Pacific in 1740 to attack the Spanish ships on the Chilean coast he took eight ships with him. The Wager was effectively a transport ship carrying stores and a force of marines; as the squadron rounded Cape Horn in fearsome weather she was unable to keep up with the rest of them and with her gear wrecked by the storm was driven ashore on the Patagonian coast. This tale of mutiny hardship and tenacity that ensued was told by the survivors especially John Bulkeley leader of those who repudiated the captain's authority. Bulkeley the ship's carpenter and Cummins led their small group of survivors until their landing at Rio de Janeiro and finally England concluding a voyage that had lasted almost two years. Another narrative was published by John Byron then a midshipman who remained with Captain Cheap. Of Cheap's group only three members Cheap Byron and one other eventually reached home but by a different overland route.<br> This voyage was the basis for Patrick O'Brian's historical work 'The Unknown Shore' written before he embarked on the Jack Aubrey/Stephen Maturin novels.
