After a shipwreck, the narrator, his wife, and four sons find themselves castaways on an uninhabited island. Retrieving what they can from the ship, they construct a life for themselves through their own resourcefulness—building a tree house, finding such foods as coconuts, sugarcane, honey, and potatoes, and securing themselves against danger.
