The Raft is a novel written by Coningsby Dawson and published in 1914. The story revolves around a group of people who are stranded on a raft in the middle of the ocean. The group consists of a diverse range of characters, including a young couple, a doctor, a sailor, and a wealthy businessman.As they struggle to survive on the raft, tensions begin to rise among the group. The wealthy businessman, who had initially taken charge of the situation, becomes increasingly authoritarian and begins to clash with the doctor, who believes in a more democratic approach.As the days pass, the group faces a number of challenges, including hunger, thirst, and exposure to the elements. They also encounter a number of other rafts and boats, some of which offer help and others which pose a threat.Throughout the novel, the characters are forced to confront their own weaknesses and prejudices, and to work together in order to survive. The Raft is a gripping tale of survival, adventure, and human nature, and remains a classic of early 20th-century literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
