Summary
Robert Louis Stevenson was a Scottish novelist, poet, composer, essayist, and adventure writer. Best known for his novels Treasure Island (1883) and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1886), Stevenson wrote a number of essays, short stories, and children’s poems. "The Silverado Squatters" is a travelogue of his honeymoon in the Napa Valley. "Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes" (1879), one of his earliest published works, is considered a milestone of outdoor literature. The work is an account of Stevenson's 12-day, 200-kilometre hiking journey through the sparsely populated regions of the Cévennes mountains in south-central France. The short story "A Lodging for the Night" (1877) was Stevenson's first published fiction, at the age of 27, while Kidnapped (1886) is an historical novel set in 18th-century Scotland, about the Appin Murder.
