There was no room for me upon the lifeboat; but being left behind saved my life -- and the lives of Peterkin and Jack Martin, my two companions. \"Come, boys,\" said Jack Martin in a grave tone as we stood on the quarterdeck awaiting our fate -- \"You see it is impossible that the little boat can reach the shore, crowded with men.\" He had us take hold of a loose oar, and guided us to shelter on a deserted coral isle. . . . . . . and that is the beginning of my harrowing tale. The novel was still considered a classic for English primary school children in the early 20th century.
