About this ebook

This volume contains a collection of essays by Robert Louis Stevenson. The themes tackled within these essays are varied, ranging from love and marriage, to morality and hope. This fantastic collection is highly recommended for fans of Stevenson's work, and it would make for a worthy addition to any literary collection. The essays of this compendium include: "Virginibus Puerisque", "On Falling in Love", "Truth of Intercourse ", "Crabbed Age and Youth", "An Apology for Idlers", "Ordered South", "Aes Triplex", "El Dorado", "The English Admirals", and more. Robert Louis Balfour Stevenson (1850 - 1894) was a famous Scottish essayist, novelist, poet, and travel writer. Some of his best known works include "Treasure Island" and "The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde". Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.

Author

Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert Lewis Balfour Stevenson was born on 13 November 1850, changing his second name to ‘Louis’ at the age of eighteen. He has always been loved and admired by countless readers and critics for ‘the excitement, the fierce joy, the delight in strangeness, the pleasure in deep and dark adventures’ found in his classic stories and, without doubt, he created some of the most horribly unforgettable characters in literature and, above all, Mr. Edward Hyde.
