Gulliver Travel Chapter 1

The story started off introducing Gulliver as he was growing up. He was the third of five sons. At the age of fourteen he was sent to Emanuel college in Cambridge. Following years his father sent him small sums of money. He laid the money out to help learn navigation and different types of mathematics. May 4, 1699 he set sail for Bristol. The voyage was horrible. The weather and a huge rock causing many deaths and the splitting of the crew. Gulliver then was washed up upon sea when he was discovered by little people. Before he could wake and see what was going on he was tied up.

The little people fed and took care of him. After this they took him to the capitol which he was showed off to the people. They then had to build a device to transport him to the Emperor. He was then examined by the emperor and thousands of his people.
