Twenty brief tales written over many years and published after Stevenson’s death. In the first, Long John Silver and Captain Smollett step outside the pages of Treasure Island to argue about their author; others include ‘The House of Eld’, ‘The Sinking Ship’, ‘The Yellow Paint’ and South Sea legends of the spirit world, all turning on faith, duty and folly.
A small, surprising book that shows the moralist and wit beneath Stevenson’s adventure stories. Download the free EPUB.
