Description
"The Coral Island" by R. M. Ballantyne is a novel published in 1857. Three boys survive a shipwreck and find themselves marooned on a South Pacific island, where they must navigate adventures and encounters in an unfamiliar world. A pioneering work of juvenile fiction featuring exclusively young heroes, this Robinsonade explores themes of Christianity, imperialism, and leadership. The novel later inspired William Golding's "Lord of the Flies," which dramatically inverted its moral perspective on childhood and civilization. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
