Although he begins his life on the margins of society, Jack gradually develops ambitions beyond the criminal world and experiences a remarkable series of changes in fortune. His adventures take him through theft, transportation, plantation life, military service and financial success. Like Defoe's better-known Moll Flanders, the novel combines fast-moving storytelling with observations on crime, morality, class and social mobility, creating a vivid portrait of a man continually attempting to reshape his identity and circumstances.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folio Vault","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":55216390046035,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":55421107175763,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/thefoliovault.com\/products\/colonel-jack-folio-society-259","provider":"Folio Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
