'Robert Louis Stevenson' (1850-1894) was an acclaimed poet, essayist, novelist and travel-writer, as accomplished in fiction as non-fiction. Born and educated in Edinburgh, Scotland, Stevenson studied to become a lawyer though he never actually practised law. Dogged by ill health throughout his life, Stevenson travelled extensively, simply for joy of it and to find more salubrious climates-in America, in Europe, and on the island of Samoa in the Pacific Ocean, where he lived for four years before death.
A well-known literary figure during his lifetime, Stevenson's popularity has endured and grown over the last century. His work includes many timeless classics; among others, 'Treasure Island, Kidnapped, Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, New Arabian Nights' and 'A Child's Garden of Verses'.
