Publisher's Synopsis

""Jarwin and Cuffy"" is a children's adventure novel written by R.M. Ballantyne. The story follows two young boys, Jarwin and Cuffy, who are shipwrecked on a deserted island in the Pacific Ocean. The boys must learn to survive on their own, finding food and shelter while avoiding dangerous animals and harsh weather conditions. As they explore the island, they discover hidden treasures and encounter a group of hostile natives. With bravery and quick thinking, Jarwin and Cuffy must outsmart their enemies and find a way to escape the island and return home. The book is filled with exciting adventures and valuable lessons about perseverance, friendship, and survival. It is a classic tale of adventure and exploration that will captivate readers of all ages.Thoroughly understanding and appreciating this remark, Cuffy roused himself and looked on with profound interest, while his master cut up a dried fish. Having received a large share of it, he forgot everything else, and devoted all his powers, physical and mental, to the business in hand. Although Jarwin also applied himself to the food with the devotion of a man whose appetite is sharp, and whose strength needs recruiting, he was very far indeed from forgetting other things. He kept his eyes the whole time on the approaching sail, and once or twice became so absorbed and so anxious lest the vessel should change her course.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
