Gulliver's Travels Repro Books Limited

Gulliver's Travels, or Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World. In Four Parts. By Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and then a Captain of Several Ships is a 1726 prose satire by the Irish writer and clergyman Jonathan Swift, satirising both human nature and the "travellers' tales" literary subgenre. It is Swift's best known full-length work, and a classic of English literature. Jonathan Swift claimed that he wrote Gulliver's Travels "to vex the world rather than divert it". A universally-read satirical fantasy, Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels continues to remain a classic of English literature even more than two and a half centuries after it was first published.
