Description
Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) was a Scottish poet, novelist, and travel writer. Born the son of a lighthouse engineer, Stevenson suffered from a lifelong lung ailment that forced him to travel constantly in search of warmer climates. Rather than follow his father’s footsteps, Stevenson pursued a love of literature and adventure that would inspire such works as Treasure Island (1883), Kidnapped (1886), Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886), and Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes (1879). Lloyd Osbourne (1868-1947) was an American author and the stepson of Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson. Born in San Francisco, he moved to Europe with his mother Fanny in 1875. While living in Paris, Fanny married Stevenson, with whom she traveled to the South Pacific. Encouraged in his literary interests by the legendary writer, Lloyd collaborated with his stepfather on three novels: The Wrong Box (1889); The Wrecker (1892); and The Ebb-Tide (1894).
