Of Captain Mission and His C

The Introduction explains : "Defoe has been recognized as the author of 'A General History of the Robberies and Murders of the Most Notorious Pyrates' since 1932 when

John Robert Moore suggested that the supposed author, Captain Charles

Johnson, like Andrew Moreton, Kara Selym or Captain Roberts, was merely

another mask for the creator of 'Robinson Crusoe'. Although most of the

first volume is of minor literary importance, the second section which

appeared in 1728 as 'The History of the Pyrates' commenced with a life

"Of Captain Misson and His Crew," one of Defoe's most remarkable and

neglected works of fiction."
