The family consists of Mr. and Mrs. Seagrave, their four children, and their servant, a black man called Ready.The novel is divided into three parts. In the first part, the family is shipwrecked and struggles to survive on the island. They encounter many challenges, including finding food and shelter, dealing with dangerous animals, and coping with the emotional strain of their situation.In the second part, the family is rescued by a passing ship, but they are forced to leave Ready behind on the island. Ready stays behind and continues to survive on his own, using his skills and knowledge to make a life for himself.In the third part, the family returns to the island to find Ready and bring him back with them. They are surprised to find that he has become the leader of a group of natives, who have come to respect and admire him for his intelligence and resourcefulness.Masterman Ready is a classic adventure novel that explores themes of survival, resilience, and the power of human ingenuity. It is a thrilling and engaging story that has captured the imaginations of readers for generations.Ready was up before the sun had appeared, and he awakened William. The knapsacks had been already packed, with two bottles of water in each, wrapped round with cocoa-nut leaves, to prevent their breaking, and the beef and pork divided between each knapsack. Ready's, which was larger than William's, held the biscuit and several other things which Ready had prepared in case they might require them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
