Cover of Robert Louis Stevenson: Essays in the Art of Writing (PDF)

Although several of Robert Louis Stevenson’s major works — Treasure Island, Kidnapped, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde — have been enshrined in the Western canon of popular literature, these novels represent only a fraction of a prodigious body of writing that spans virtually every genre. Stevenson was a prolific and preternaturally skilled writer, and in these essays, he offers insight, tips, and inspiration that will capture the imagination of both fans of his work and would-be writers.
