Weir of Hermiston
Weir of Hermiston – Robert Louis Stevenson
“ Virginibus Puerisque” is a collection of short essays and mostly a record of Stevenson’s opinions – which means, largely, of his likes and dislikes. It all comes back to his sympathy with the juvenile, and that feeling about life which leads him to regard women as so many superfluous girls in a boy’s game.

Vailima Letters
Vailima Letters – Robert Louis Stevenson
The value of these letters lies in their being like their writer. All Stevenson’s work, when it was successful, was a more or less literal transcription of his everyday self. Even his literary discipline tended and helped to this end, instead of to the production of an artificial and unfamiliar self. No writer owed so much to his own social qualities ; and his popularity is very far from being an exclusively literary one. His interests, his views of life, his opinions on books, his hopes, his despondencies, his eccentricities, heresies, prejudices, he insinuates into his readers, and they are adopted, cheered, echoed, in most unlikely quarters, not because of their intrinsic worth 01 reasonableness, but because they were his, and had, therefore, the most winning of advocates and expounders. The Vailima Letters are not to be named with epistolary masterpieces. But they let out the secret, to whoever has not already guessed it, of Stevenson’s beguiling influence. Just what delighted you in Kidnapped, or The New Arabian Nights, or in the Travels with a Donkey, is here to delight you when he is speaking of his own private concerns, or of Samoan politics, or of his literary hopes and fears—his sparkling fun, his varying moods, his austere indignation, his gentleness, his ready confidence. If Stevenson ever posed at all he posed in naturalness, in being so much himself that no one could think him other than he was.

Treasure Island
Treasure Island – Robert Louis Stevenson
The book which made Stevenson famous, and has since become a classic among tales of adventure, to be ranked with “Robinson Crusoe”. Its appearance did much more than establish him as a writer for boy readers. In fact, the book was not instantaneously a success among readers of that day, pledged to Captain Marry at and his imitators. But it brought Stevenson prominently to the notice of an elder public, able to perceive the uncommon power of romantic description which marked Treasure Island from previous tales of adventure. A couple of years passed before this yarn of buccaneers and mutiny on the high seas became one of the most popular of boys’ books. Meanwhile its author, who had never been a campaigner like Mayne Reid in Mexico, or Ballantyne with the Hudson Bay Company, but had lived in a bedroom world of romance of his own making, first found himself recognized as a writer of note outside the small literary circle in which his work was esteemed.

The Essential Travel Writings
The Essential Travel Writings – Robert Louis Stevenson
“The Story of a Lie”has a curious bibliography. It was written in August, 1879 on a voyage from Glasgow to New York, “in a slantindicular cabin, with the table playing bob-cherry with the ink-bottle.” It was sold to Kegan Paul’s “withered babe, the New Quarterly,” a periodical of brief existence, where it appeared in October, 1879, having been forwarded to Mr. Sidney Colvin immediately on the author’s arrival in America. R. L. S. was anxious to know what impression it made upon his friends, who were told to “ remember that it was written at sea in great anxiety of mind,” but it did not, in the agitated history of his affairs, then attract much notice. Nearly three years later, when Stevenson was at Davos, some one prepared “The Story of a Lie” for book publication in England.

In The South Seas
In The South Seas – Robert Louis Stevenson
In the South Seas, as here available to the reader, is the result of a journey on the ‘Casco’ together with Stevenson’s mother, wife and stepson. The earlier parts, those on the Marquesas and Paumotos, or low or atoll islands, most definitely mark Stevenson’s original intention ; those on the Gilberts, with their picture of the king Tembinok, are more in the personal strain of R. L. S., and are thus accepted as the most successful part of these writings. But the things most to be regretted about them is their omissions ; nothing of Stevenson’s long stay at Tautira as the guest of the chief Ori a Ori, nor of his visit to the leper settlement of Molokai. His letters to friends in England, and the extracts from his journal in the ‘ Life ‘ do something to fill in these gaps, but not in proportion to the interest of the subjects.

The Silverado Squatters
The Silverado Squatters – Robert Louis Stevenson
Robert Louis Stevenson’s volume grew out of a few weeks’ sojourn of the author and his wife in a deserted miner’s cabin on the heights of Mount Saint Helena, in the California Coast Range. In a series of short sketches or chapters, Mr. Stevenson describes the incidents which befell him and his companion. One can conceive that a most entertaining history might be written of a summer’s residence in a sequestered nook among stately and remote mountains. The smallest everyday affairs rise out of the commonplace in such quaint and picturesque circumstances, affording abundant matter for a ready writer to work upon.
