That sure was a literary classic.
Entertaining to read, amusing and sometimes surprisingly cutting criticisms of Britain, colonialism and Western philosophy. Sometimes a bit hard to follow reading three hundred years distant, but generally very transparent satire or just plainly ridiculous. A silly little guy.

I'm sure this will only get more interesting as I look up more context than I already have.
A good tale of travelling and to see the world a bit as a Martian would to ours! All the foilbles of mankind and the weakness of the mindset of the travelling conquerer lie within. Descriptions become dry but more a sign of times of writing gone by. A classic of reference to add to the arsenal.

All the deficiencies Gulliver sees in the behavior of his fellow men in the early 1700’s are still seen today .
But his travel journal is a joy to read !
