Summary
Edward Prendick opens the story of his time on Dr Moreau's island by recounting the story of how he got there. After a ship called "The Lady Vain" got caught in dire straits, he and 2 crew members escaped on a dingy with very little rations left to them. For 8 days that travelled aimlessly, slowly making their way through the soggy biscuits and water flask that they had. After a few days, one of the men suggests that they draw lots to see who will sacrifice themselves to save the others. One of these two other men draws the short straw and instead of sacrificing himself, decides to attack the other man on the dingy. The scuffle between these two leads to them both falling overboard. Exhausted, and famished from their voyage they do not surface, leaving Edward, alone in the middle of the sea with no hope of rescue in sight. On the 8th day, when he believes himself to be on death's door, a schooner pokes its sail over the horizon and rescues him.
