Daniel Defoe.
Daniel Defoe was born in London in 1660. He became a merchant, travelled widely and built up a successful business. During this period, he married and started raising a family. But in 1692, his business failed, leaving 32-year-old Defoe heavily in debt, with a wife and six children to support. He had always been interested in politics so he tried making his living by writing political articles for newspapers. These article often criticized the king and the ruling party. As a result, Defoe spent many years in and out of prison.
His political writings had brought only troubles and increasing debts and Defoe turned to fiction writing. His first novel written in 1719 when Defoe was nearly sixty years old, became one of the best known adventure stories in the world. That novel was «Robinson Crusoe» a story which still thrills reader today, more than two hundred fifty years later.
He continued writing novels such as «Moll Flanders», «Colonel Jack», and two other Robinson Crusoe stories.
He died in 1731 at the age of seventy-one, as along and as frightened as his hero, Robinson, had been during his twenty-eight years on a desert island.

Alexandre Dumas
The year was 1807. Five-year-old Alexandre Dumas knew that he was different from the other boys in his small French town. For Alexandre was half black and half white. And nobody ever let him forget that.
Education bored young Alexandre, and as he grew, he preferred spending his time hunting and leading an outdoor life. But when Alexandre turned sixteen, his whole life changed. He saw his first play a performance of Shakespeare's «Hamlet», and from that moment on, his dream was to go to Paris and become a playwright.
Dumas worked for years as a clerk and wrote in his spare time. He wrote plays and travel books. But it was another kind of story that made him rich and famous. That was the historical novel.
In his many historical novels Dumas took people who really existed in French history and events that actually happened. He added main characters from his own imagination and created entertaining and amusing adventure stories around them.
The most famous of all Dumas' historical novels are «The Three Musketeers», «The Count of Monte Cristo» and «The Man in the Iron Mask».
Alexandre Dumas wrote more than six hundred books in his lifetime, more than any other man, living or dead. He made the world rich with his books.
