Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert Louis Stevenson loved to conjure up a dashing, romantic lineage for himself, dreaming that he was descended from the colourful outlaw Rob Roy MacGregor. This work gives a concise account of his life - his family background, childhood and adolescence in a Calvinist, hard-working household in Scotland, and his final years in the South Seas.

Lui Robert Louis Stevenson ii placea sa-si evoce o descendenta romantica, atragatoare, visand ca descendea din haiducul colorat Rob Roy MacGregor. Aceasta lucrare ofera o relatare concisa a vietii sale - mediul sau familial, copilaria si adolescenta intr-o gospodarie calvina si muncitoare din Scotia si ultimii sai ani in Marile de Sud.
