The Silverado Squatters and The Silverado Diary (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

By Robert Louis Stevenson

This anthology features some of the very best of his travel and adventure writing. Stevenson takes us along with him to California’s Napa Valley, where he gets to know the area’s enterprising—if not always scrupulous—early winemakers.

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.
