Letter to Arthur B. Fuller

mentioned
“Mrs Farrar sent three or four books, among others her Crusoe may be good to read in yr school.”

Fuller, Margaret. The Letters of Margaret Fuller. Edited by Robert N. Hudspeth. Vol. III. Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1986.

Fuller's phrase "her Crusoe" identifies this as Eliza Ware Farrar's own Robinson Crusoe adaptation for young readers, not Defoe's original.
